Thread: Can't do anything productive lately

And for seemingly no reason, I just... wont. I let the dishes gather up in the dishwasher, I let my laundry pile up. I have a bag or two of trash that needs to be taken out, the table and my computer desk are a mess with junk and papers, and I delay on paying my bills. I have more than enough money in the bank... I just procrastinate. Then, I will buck up one day, clean the house, take out all the trash, pay all the bills, file everything away, do all the dishes, and then sit very clean and satisfied with my organized life.

Just every handful of months, there is seems to be a week or two, were I just... stop for a while.

Yeah, this is normal. Pretty much everyone does it. (Well not everyone, but pretty much everyone normal.)

It's laziness. I'm not passing judgment. If you want to be lazy, and you're not hurting anyone, go ahead. But don't look for possible diagnoses so you can feel better about yourself. If you want to get off your ass and do stuff, do it.
