Help,I have a lot to do this month,and of course,being the reasonable person that I am,I chose to procrastinate until the last minute.
Now I'm experiencing hot and cold flashes,and I cannot breathe well.Every breath seems shallow and my throat is restricted.i still have to get things done, so please tell me what I can possibly do to make it better. Thanks.

Firstly make a list of all the things you need to do and put the list somewhere you procrastinate. Subliminals always help me to get things done.https://uk.video.search.yahoo.com/search/video;_ylt=AwrP4k2e_t1abQQAfVhLBQx.;_ylu=X3oDMTE0cGs5cThkBGNvbG8DaXIyBHBvcwMxBHZ0aWQDVUlVS0MwMV8xBHNlYwNzYw--?p=anti+procrastinate+subliminal&fr=mcafee#id=1&vid=a8250757556dccb35f85a89676d551c8&action=view

Here is one. I hope the link works. It works every time for me when I listen to them. Next, you have the whole of this month. Do the easy bits first and cross them off of your list. Getting more done quickly will make you feel like you've achieved doing something. Just keep on with it until the task is finished. Even if you only do a little bit at a time. Every little bit helps. Remember we are sick, and that sickness has procrastination as a symptom. Every little bit you do is an achievement so feel good about yourself with every bit that you do.

Sometimes I'm not sure I procrastinate because of anxiety or I'm just plain lazy... This has constantly affected me throughout the years and I cannot help but think I'm screwing up my entire life.

thanks... I think anxiety can be a thing that runs in family, although I am not sure. Relatives from my father's side tend to be troubled by emotional issues, and consult professionals though.

Something I didn't realise before is that my meds, Prozac can make someone lethargic. So I too struggle against that. Also, depression and anxiety makes you lethargic. Make a list of your 'to do's' and don't push yourself more than you feel like doing. If you only do one thing on that list each day give yourself a pat on the back. Even one thing gotten done is an achievement for the likes of us.

When I see that I am procrastinating too much, I listen to subliminals for anti procrastination on YouTube and it works ever time. Try one out and I'm sure you will be surprised how quickly they get you up and about doing something. Be warned though, if you don't like doing housework, these subliminals will get you doing the housework without you even realising.

I have a hard time telling myself I am not lazy, and I usually feel guilty about not accomplishing something "just because" I'm the way that i am... Thanks for the suggestion, same here, while I'm easily unmotivated, I'm easy to get pumped by those subliminal and feel like taking over the world in one day, haha.
