I used to be driven by the stress of anxiety and perfectionism, and as I've gotten over those issues, I feel like I don't know how to motivate myself anymore. I just can't make myself sit down and focus at work for very long when I don't feel pressured and there's no room for upward mobility.

What advice would you have for finding a healthier motivation solution when struggling to focus at work?

DBT seems like a really cool and helpful tool, even for people that don't "have" to have it. I like how structured the approach is.

Are there any resources I can use as a mostly healthy person with some depression/anxiety to "self-teach" myself? Or do you think that would not be worthwhile? I feel like it could boost my quality of life.

I'm not an expert but couldn't bringing up those things be a good thing (if done with the guidance of therapy)? I imagine that someone with trauma will not be able to heal until they can be comfortable thinking about it
