Hello thanks for asking can understand your concern. You have symptoms like extreme apathy, reduced energy, poor focus, reduced motivation and Chat Doctor.  The mood is more or less not affected as you haven't mentioned this. If we consider the information you provided then two main possibilities can be there. One is depression, which you don't think you have. But even if you have normal mood and no disturbance in functioning even then reduced energy, lack of motivation, poor focus, apathy, indecisiveness etc. could be occurring due too mild to moderate depression. This should be evaluated by a psychiatrist. Other possibility is adult ADD. In adult ADD poor focus, procrastination, indecisiveness etc. are seen commonly and this could lead to other symptoms which you've mentioned. So please visit a psychiatrist for evaluation and diagnosis. Thanks and Take care
