I have been having problems with chronic indecisiveness for a few years now. At this point it is completely altering my life and leaving me in a state of procrastination and I feel paralyzed mentally (when a decision comes up). I just do not know how to get over this.. recently I became homeless and have been staying with a friend and I am so indecisive to the point where I cannot decide whether to spend my ~5K in savings on getting an apartment or just get a cheap van/truck and live out of that for a bit since I hate taking the bus and walking everywhere.. It's been a 6 month+ long decision and I want it to end. It is like this with everything - from meals I should have to what job I should go for.. all of this indecision has left me doing nothing - not living life.. just sitting at my gf's house doing nothing all day and depending on her for my happiness. Also, this had lead to me having waves of emptiness, sadness and extreme boredom.
Any /adv/ice will help..

I'd rather get punched in the face every morning and be decisive than have to deal with being this way.
Hey man, that sucks, I don't think I can give you advice. Reading the title I didn't think it'd be that bad. You should consider going to a psychiatrist because your problem doesn't sound at all normal, more like an actual psychological problem.
I hope it turns out better for you, do seek professional help senpai.
I had that same problem for most of my life. I was in my 20s when the doc told me it was OCD.
I'd say if it interferes with your life, go see a doctor

Costs way too much to go to a doctor/therapist.

i havent got all the way there but today i am learning to kill perfectionism by being brave enough to be average. honestly though feeling good by david k burns, its taking me 2 months to read but every page is gold. he is a funny guy with good experience from patients and himself. senpais all round
