Alright guys, I'm 21 and supposed to be working on an undergrad thesis so I can graduate in December. I can't stay focused on my research because it doesn't interest me anymore. School in general doesn't interest me, either. I've been holed up in my parents' house and have been bent to their will of pursuing school instead of a job and independence, and I do see that as the most practical route to take, especially now as I'm about to finish my degree. The problem is it all just seems so empty and I don't feel like I'm doing anything meaningful in my life.
I have decided that I need to finish this degree before I go on, but I'm having so much trouble just focusing on the work associated with it. Any time I sit down to work, I feel like I would rather drink cyanide and then end up either getting drunk or playing videogames for 5 hours. What do I need to do to encourage myself to bite the bullet and better connect myself to my obligations?

Stress
Listen, you are just focusing too fucking much in the future, the cool shit comes after you finish your thesis
Is not that your research doesn't interest you anymore, it's just that you are tired.
One more thing, motivation is a meme, you need discipline.

I am indeed tired but my parents have this unfounded notion that if I 'take a gap semester', I'll never finish. I don't have any close friends that would let me live with them, so I'm stuck in this situation.
I don't understand what you mean when you say that I'm too focused in the future.
