At A Better Version Collaborative Counseling, we don’t believe in “laziness.”
What we often call laziness is usually something deeper — exhaustion, overwhelm, burnout, depression, anxiety, trauma responses, attention difficulties, or simply a nervous system that’s been running on empty for too long.
When your brain is fighting to survive, it’s hard to “motivate” your way out of it.
If you’ve been feeling unproductive, unmotivated, or stuck, please remember:
You’re not broken. You’re not lazy. You’re overwhelmed, and your mind and body might be asking for support — not shame.
Therapy can help you understand what’s underneath the lack of motivation and help you build the tools to move forward with compassion instead of criticism.
Your worth is never measured by productivity. 💛
