I feel the same exact fucking way…like I skipped two years of elementary school and now my ass can’t even get up to do a paper. Like did I just get a free pass for some reason??

Oh yea 100%. That’s partially why I’m in the position I’m in now where I’m not at full capacity compared to beforehand. I burned myself out so hard it kinda fried my brain.
