There is nothing wrong with you. I am also an Earth Tiger, January 31st, 1999. Right now the world is a crazy place. We feel like we have so much taken from us due to Covid that leaves us adrift from how we feel we are supposed to mature. This year, we can't find what we feel we should be dedicating ourselves to in life. But that is a normal part of growing older. Cultivating interests, expanding our worldview, meeting new people and learning new things is work that is not glamorous. However, this is the very structure of your life. Don't lose yourself in tomorrow that you don't enjoy today. We're still at the start of a long journey. Be open and honest with yourself and others about that fact. Ask for help, cut yourself a break; this is your first time being alive and you're still learning. No one is lazy by nature, only situation. Find those things that are draining your energy and making you mentally unwell. Focus on your physical health and sleeping enough (but not too much). When your body is balance, passion and creativity and interest will follow.
This year has been so hard for me in many ways, but an excellent growing experience. Like you, I felt I wasn't supporting and being loving enough towards my partner and broke up. However, taking that break was critical for me. I travelled and worked on myself before truly appreciating all they did for me and now our relationship has never been stronger. We are considering moving in together next year, following a trip back to family in Taiwan for CNY!
Look out for yourself, try and fail some new things, be appreciative for what you have and look to help others using your skills. I'm rooting for you (:
