Juliana, Muse, if you guys come up with the magical cure—please let me know about it. Procrastinating or sometimes trying to get things done and just plain spinning my wheels is the root of my anxiety. I have all kinds of good intentions, but they never seem to materialize. And then I also have way too many demands on my time—heavy workload, heavy school load. Teachers…oh, lets not talk about teachers…I have one that is trying to save the world in just one quarter—her demands are unrealistic, but I have to pass the class to graduate.

I try not to get too down on myself because sometimes, I think it is more than just procrastination—I get all anxious and unable to start a project let alone finish one. I spend hours trying and yet I get nowhere. I run around in a constant state of “oh, %#@&#!” because deadlines are looming over my head. My boss is a neurologist and she suggested that I am ADHD—I have meds for it, but that has not been the magical cure. It has made things better, but I am still struggling.

Well, not much help am I? At least know that you are not alone! The next time you are up at 1 AM trying to get a project done, think of me, I’ll probably be somewhere in Ohio doing the same thing.
