you and I are in the same boat.

I think I will kill myself.

You need to see the doctor. It's depression.

I know I probably do. But with my current living situation my parents would find out, and they tend to fucking panic. The thought I actually did try to kill myself one time when I accidentally drank too much vodka. I didn't try kill myself, but the fact that they jumped to that conclusion has put me off ever talking to them about my metal health.

Discipline > motivation

Just promise yourself you will work on your project at least 10 minutes a day. 10 minutes isn't as intimidating and it tricks your brain into getting over the barrier of simply getting started. Getting started is actually the most difficult part, that's why you should try to minimize the pressure by saying you will only work 10 minutes.

you just need to stop being a lazy piece of shit. its that simple. you just force yourself to do shit. stop being a lazy faggot.

I found an excellent way to study. I play the educational videos related to my field in the background, and then I play a music playlist at an even lower volume so they're audibly engaging, then I go play a video-game. That way I don't get bored. Doing this, I can study consistently and not die of boredom.

People need to produce this more, so education isn't so boring. Imagine if in class you could play video-games and listen to music while listening to lecture. Class attendance would increase 300%. I'm a genius, I know.

It's not depression, it's the fact that we're 21st century animals and simply sitting and reading a book isn't as engaging as it once was. We need to be stimulated mentally in order to learn or else we get bored. I can't stand teachers who told me it's my fault I failed their class when they were shitty fucking teachers.
