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.
Religious ocd

Hyper self awareness
Hello doctor, I’ve been dealing with a constant self-awareness problem for a long time. I keep noticing my thoughts, body sensations, and especially my eye contact, which makes me uncomfortable in social situations. This started around 4 years ago when I was in 11th class and went through a phase of depression. At that time, I had issues like sleeplessness, overthinking, and constantly analysing my thoughts. I also had very high phone usage earlier (which I have now reduced), but I feel my attention is still stuck inward. My main problem right now is difficulty with natural eye contact and excessive self-awareness. I would like guidance on how to manage this and feel normal again.
