Overcoming these anxious habits may require a combination of self-awareness, seeking professional help, and implementing strategies such as cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and stress management. Taking small steps to face your fears, setting realistic goals, and practicing self-care can help you manage your anxiety and regain control of your time and energy. (Unsplash)
Overthinking: Constantly analyzing or overanalyzing a situation can be tiring and time consuming. It can lead to undue worry, self-doubt, and difficulty making decisions. (Unsplash)
Seeking reassurance and reassurance: Frequent checking of keys, appliances, emails, etc., and seeking reassurance from others can be habitual reactions to anxiety. While it may provide temporary relief, it can be a significant waste of time and energy. (Unsplash)

Procrastination: Anxiety can lead to avoidance behavior, and we may delay or procrastinate on tasks due to fear or worry about consequences. Procrastination not only wastes time, it also increases stress levels as deadlines approach. (Unsplash)
Perfectionism: Striving for perfection can become a time-consuming habit driven by anxiety. Spending too much time on tasks, striving for perfection all the time, and being overly critical of yourself can drain your energy and make you less productive. (Unsplash)
