Specializes in Psychiatry

Multiple concerns: It sounds like you're very concerned about yourself. Depression can certainly cause difficulties with concentration and motivation, but so can other conditions. Please see your physician to begin investigating what's causing your difficulties. A psychiatrist can provide specialty guidance and treatment, but you also need a general health exam. Aloha to you.

Many answers: You need to find a good counselor, either a psychologist or a psychiatrist you can talk who can help you sort out all of these questions. You could have one or the other or both or even something else.
