Hi
What you’re going through is more than simple procrastination. With dysthymia and OCD, it often becomes a loop where low mood reduces energy, you avoid tasks, then guilt increases, which again makes starting even harder. Over time this creates a stuck pattern that doesn’t improve just by “trying harder.” Low self-esteem, constant pressure from family, and lack of interest are all adding to this cycle. The focus now should not be on big changes but on very small, consistent actions, while also working on reducing guilt and perfectionism that come from OCD thinking. This usually needs a more structured approach combining CBT, behavioural activation, and OCD-focused techniques together. You’re not failing here your system is just overwhelmed and stuck in a pattern that needs to be broken step by step. Take therapy. You can connect with me on nine two six six seven two six zero six five.
