While procrastination is frustrating, it is your brain’s way of communicating, not a moral flaw. The next time you catch yourself avoiding a task, pause before beating yourself up. Ask yourself what your brain may be trying to tell you.

The good news is that there are a lot of different treatments out there- therapy, medication, and many different approaches for each. The not so good news is that this can be very overwhelming for someone who is just starting this journey- especially if you are already anxious, stressed, or depressed.

I am going to try my best to break this down and help this process feel less daunting.

I thought I had my life figured out from a young age…But as it often happens, life took me in another direction.
