Hi, I'm on my A2 and I have gotten into a very bad habit of not bothering to do any homework at all, or if I do, I procrastinate until 4-5 AM which leads to rushed and sloppy work which I can't really learn from anyway.
I have been to the school counsellour for advice, and was asked to make SMART targets, which I forgot about and now, I am too ashamed at myself to even come back to her.
I've stopped going to the gym after school since I feel that I need time to do work and if I don't have much work, I sleep immediately when I get home. I am able to work better at school since there is a better atmosphere there, where at home, I'd only get sleepy, lazy and angry when I even think of doing work.
I have to adjust my thinking or I won't be able to get into my university choices, but the thing is, I really don't know how to do this. I don't want to talk to my parents about this problem; I've been through this with them and I'd rather find an external or internal way of improving myself.
When I browse the web, I tend to have a minimum of 20 tabs open; I read random wikipedia pages and forums, as well as youtube and I really can't pull myself away from this without getting very frustrated.
Has anyone else had a similar experience to mine? If so, how did you overcome your laziness?
I've found that replies such as 'you just have to focus' to be useless, if I could easily just do that, then I wouldn't still be having this problem.
Sorry if I sound rude, but I really need help.
Thanks.
