When it's not a disorder...
It is important to have a proper assessment with a psychologist before assuming that you have a disorder. Please book some time with me if you would like to discuss any issues so I can provide a proper assessment and treatment plan.
“To change one’s life: Start immediately. Do it flamboyantly. No exceptions.” William James
Take an assertive approach to life changes, endeavor to combating procrastination, take confident steps towards achieving our goals without delay.
