She probably registered to a forum or the other portal and she used her email with the same gmail password. And then the data (list of emails and passwords) form a forum/portal leaked. Ask her if she use the one password to all accounts.

My productivity tips:

- to do lists and pomodoro technique

- automate everything what can be automated

- delegate everything what can be delegated

Don't give up. Motivation is a skill that can be trained like a muscle. Don't be afraid to make mistakes but never do the same mistake twice. Learn from other's mistakes. Exercise, I recommed martial arts. Read interesting books and watch good movies - start with http://www.imdb.com/chart/top. Eat dark chocolate and drink a glass of wine (or beer) every day. Fall in love. Start a family, have a baby.
