I have an appointment with one today about similar problems. After thinking about it a few times, I figured that, for me, the problem is with how I view myself and what I need to do. It seems like I am scared of winning and doing well. Maybe because doing well means you have to keep doing it well to maintain what you got. On the other hand, not doing so well, takes away that responsibility and all you are left with are feelings of guilt and regret. See, no matter how much those feelings hurt, it still is MUCH easier to feel the regret than to actually make yourself do the work. This, very clearly, seems like a case of low motivation, not having enough reasons to work towards a certain goal. It can also be a problem of not having a set goal to work towards.
I dont think the psychiatrist will be able to help me much, not atleast in this meeting. But I am hoping I'll get a better understanding of what is going on.
Good luck perplexed!
