are you not doing homework, late to job, not job searching, not cleaning your home, not doing laundry, or not fulfilling your obligations in any other way?

*I never did homework
*I'm not late to work, because I have a routine; I was always late to school and classes though (because I hated it)
*I looked for work
*I have to clean my room because excess clutter sends me into overload (visual processing disorder); I vacuum it when the dust starts making me sneeze
*I wash my clothes; I like cleanliness
*I can't prepare food, barring the most basic of meals (pouring milk on cereal or opening tins)
*I don't pay attention to my physical appearance, other than making sure I'm clean (shower daily, and I also shave my face regularly, but that's because I can't handle the sensation of hair on my face)
*I don't clean my teeth regularly, as it's usually too much by the end of the day; I just gargle mouthwash most nights
*I look after the dog

I'm not too bad, really.

I am barely living up to obligations right now, with much procrastination. I've been playing video games all day long.

No homework to do, I've graduated!

I stay up at odd hours and probably could not keep to a regular schedule, but I can meet deadlines.

Not job searching, but someone is supporting me. I don't know how to approach anyone, but I am working through another person to get some search experience.

Not cleaning my home, I may not wash the dishes if I don't have time before I go to MIT.

Laundry is done.

Obligations? Obligations to what, whom?

Nobody is 'obligated' to do anything in life. Thinking differently is a sure sign of brainwashing somewhere along the line.

I don't work. I'm not looking for work because I think my town has nothing to offer me.
I can only cook a few meals.
Sometimes I can be really clean and get a lot of chores done, but other times (like now) the mess piles up and I can't bring myself to even pick a few things off the floor of my bedroom.

I get to work on time, obsessively almost. Housework, though, I don't really notice that anything needs doing, so I guess I don't meet my obligations there - unless one of the flatmates b*****s at me about it, in which case I would probably do something. Looking after my cat, I do ok, though I might be a bit slow when it comes to noticing that he's not well. I can't think of any other obligations I have.

-No homework to do, out of school/college... but I pretty much never did any when I did have it. I never found it helpful in learning, it was just busywork to me.
-When I still had a job, I was almost always on time. I can't stand to be late ever.
-I'm not job searching... not so much because I don't want & need one, but I have a crippling fear of the whole interview process, being under the microscope of a person who gets to have such influence over my life... and then to get a job, I fear feeling guilty over taking that job from someone who might have a family they need to support. But mostly it's because my parents trying to dictate conditions as to which jobs I am to look for.
-I clean when I'm asked to, that's it. My room's a mess.
-Sometimes I'll do laundry when I really feel the need to be useful.
