Focus becoming severe issue after a year of routine 9-5 work.
Post Body

Please excuse my venting. So, my stress about my lack of focus at work has reached and absolute peak over the past month-ish. Now that i've been at the same place for a year (first place out of college) I've entered a rut. I cant seem to get any of my projects done, and my attention span has become even more limited and hard to manage than normal. Nearly every day this week I've entered a panic that I'm not able to get my work done, which just causes stress and anxiety which just shuts me down for nearly the entire day.

I know I've had issues focusing, and never tackled it with CBT/Stimulants because it hasn't been this much of an issue, I can usually marginally get by without them. But now its becoming much more severe from the stress, my roommate is telling me i just lack passion for what i do... but I've usually enjoyed my work in software development, now I'm terrified that i truly lost my interest in my work which is why i can't get anything done. I wanted to post on this board to see if anybody has gone through this and could give me some advice. Though of note, I've made appointments with my Psych. to go over my current situation.

TLDR: i can no longer self-manage my focus at work and I'm frightened that I've lost interest rather than focus, I was wondering if anybody else has gone through this and what advice they may have.
