How can I regain my motivation and direction in life?
I feel like I've lost everything in my life, and nothing is going my way. All I want to do is lay in bed. I am a student who also does an internship, but I feel dumb at work and that I don't belong there. Even though I am technically a senior intern, I struggle to delegate work to juniors or explain what needs to be done because I feel I don't understand it. I also avoid watching lectures or sit through them without understanding anything, even though I keep telling myself I want to achieve an AIR 1 in the CA Final exam.

I am also addicted to porn. What has happened to me, and how can I improve? Please provide me with a step-by-step plan. Is there any hope for me to improve? Additionally, I am not able to focus on my studies and just want to watch series and YouTube.
