Hello

Hi,

I'm Nicole and I just joined a couple of moments ago. Its wonderful to see that perhaps finally I can get this demon off of my back.

I'm a college student and young wife. I just was married a few months ago and my procrastination is starting to cause some turmoil in my married life. And as for school....I'm working so hard to be an A student and yet, it's all at the last minute. I'm starting to feel like I'm going to explode!

I feel that it's unfortunate that every night I feel as if I'm going to have an anxiety attack...As I try to fall asleep, I think about all the things I was "supposed" to do...yuck.

So, I really have a desire to be rid of this problem...I'm at my wits end.  I hope that perhaps I can help others along the way.

Welcome! I can empathise

Welcome! I can empathise with a lot of what you're saying and hope you find this place helps... I do!

One idea re: sleep

Nicole,

I have had the same 'racing thoughts' at night, when everything is quiet and your mind starts pounding with thoughts.

I put what I need to get done down on paper, because I would lie in bed afraid I would forget the next day the things I needed to do. Having things down on paper in black and white has helped.

Sweet dreams

Welcome, Nicole

Hi Nicole,

Welcome!  Here's hoping you find the support here helpful!  A lot of us find the check-in board useful as a tool for getting stuff done.  The first couple of threads here explain how to use it and how it works:  http://procrastinators-anonymous.org/forum/6  

Looking forward to hearing from you!
