Health Q&A
Chronic Anxiety and Procrastination

I have been diagnosed with Dysthymia and OCD earlier by a psychiatrist. I have been struggling with chronic procrastination for more than 2 years now and it has affected my professional and personal life a lot. I have tried Behavioural Therapy as well a while ago for depression. But things have not changed. There are a lot of factors affecting this including low self esteem, negative environment/pressure from family, lack of interest in daily life, etc. I have been stuck in this cycle of guilt and avoidance for more than 2 years now and it's taking a huge toll on me now. It's affecting my personal and financial goals as well as my professional performance.
