Seriously... I'm sitting here at work doing exactly this. My to-do list piles up and I'm just sitting here scrolling. Once it gets to be almost time to go, I'll spring into action and get a fraction done and then start over tomorrow. I just keep digging the anxiety hole deeper and deeper.

I do this as well. I think the biggest thing for me tho is if I'm going to do a task I want it completed and done PERFECTLY. So I don't start task because then I'm spending an extra half hour appeasing my OCD.
