I'm supposed to be working on my honours project right now (mature student) but even though it's a subject I find genuinely fascinating and an interesting and potentially novel project, I haven't been able to put in more than about ten minutes in a day for a week or so. It's maddening and ever fiber of my being wants to tell me it's because I'm lazy rather than, y'know, diagnosed with ADHD.

So yeah I can't see myself being very "economically viable" any time soon. Part of me thinks I'm gonna end up working the fast food job I kinda hate for the rest of my life rather than ever getting a job in my field and it's staggeringly depressing, especially after the last year of my BSc which was a slog and a half.
