Dear Rahul,
What you describe is really more than laziness and sloth. The lack of interest in your future the inability to get out of bed in the morning all point to the onset of depression.
Unlike the common understanding of the word depression does not imply "being sad". The lethargy, lack of interest , inability to cope and most alarming your lack of control over your actions'my mind is making me stay at home" point to something more serious than laziness.
Please get in touch with a psychiatrist or at least your family doctor. Medication is a big help and specially if accompanied by therapy, even short term, very effective.
The fact that you are writing to me indicates that you subconsciously do realize something is very wrong. If you were physically sick you would get tests and talk to a doctor- make sure you treat this with the same attention and speed.
