Struggling with motivation

Hi. I'm really struggling with motivation and I feel like I need to be more together. I'm currently working full-time whilst getting my bachelor's degree through my work. I'm always tired and I now live far away from home. My mom is always saying that I don't see her enough even though I visit her every week and I never have anytime for myself. My work is getting me to do odd hours, starting at 5 on some days and not finishing until 12 on other days. I feel as though I'm being pulled in every direction and that I'm not doing enough to make everyone happy. I'm also currently moving flat and struggling to ask for help moving, I really don't want to inconvenience anyone as I live a while away. There's just so much going on I don't know where to put my focus. I tried to get help back in February but was told I was too high risk and they would have to refer my to another service, they never got back to me and I'm starting to feel like I don't deserve help. I'm sorry for the long rant I just needed to say something.

Welcome to the community
It sounds like you've got lots of things going on for you at the minute, so it's really positive that you've reached out for support here and we are here for you and care about you
Sorry to hear about you trying to get help and not getting the help you deserve.
Are you able to talk to anyone about how you are feeling? Like a family member/friend?
With regards to work could you speak to your manager about it, and how it is affecting you?
Keep posting if it's helping we are here for you
"Like when I was down you just had that smile that made me feel like everything's worthwhile. Thinking of the day when you went away, what a life to take, what a bond to break, I'll be missing you"

Sounds like you’re giving yourself a bit of a hard time? Cause to me it sounds like you’re doing so much! We can’t make everyone happy sometimes. There is only so much you can do till you just drain out and you need time for you! Time to just sit and do something you enjoy or just sit to reflect of your thoughts ect cause sounds like really busy.
