I just finished working through The Anxiety and Phobia Workbook and am feeling pretty good about the progress I made. I'd recommend it for anybody who has a problem with any kind of anxiety -- it includes sections for a variety of problems, but you can just skip the sections that don't apply to you.
Also been enjoying the tabletop game Forbidden Desert with my roommates this week. It's a good mix of being easy-to-learn for beginners and difficult to actually win. Plus it comes with a tiny airship figurine that is fun to put together.

Honestly, I'm not very good at beating procrastination at all. But at least when you know you're a chronic procrastinator, you can take measures to trick yourself.
- If you need your computer to work, install a browser extension that blocks sites like Snapzu and Facebook during certain work hours. I'll still find a way to waste time if I put my mind to it, but it helps to get the most addictive ones out of the way.
- Find something you enjoy listening to and only listen to it while working. So if there's a new episode of my favorite podcast, it almost feels like I'm excited for work, because work and the podcast always go hand-in-hand.
- If possible, go to a cafe to work. None of your stuff is there to distract you, and it makes you feel more purposeful. I sometimes talk myself out of this to save money, but it helps to think of that coffee / snack as "work tax" that I pay for accomplishing things that I wouldn't at home.
- On your to-do list, write down how long you think each task will take. Sometimes it's easier to get started on something if I can see it will only take a half hour and then I can check it off. If the times on your list are too daunting, break them down into smaller tasks.

My most frequent recurring dream is that I'm at a grocery store or restaurant and I'm trying to decide on the perfect thing to eat. No matter how long the dream lasts, it never ends with me deciding on something and finally eating it. But I never wake up hungry, so I think it's more about anxiety over too many choices than food.

Oh cool, I didn't know that! I guess the word "returns" should have tipped me off.

Also it's easy to verify that a celebrity is present for an AMA, but if they're expected to comment regularly then I imagine at least some of them would hire somebody to comment for them.

Congrats! I still haven't seen Whisper of The Heart, but The Cat Returns is my favorite underrated Ghibli movie.

Welcome! I'm also hoping that the community here will be a little more welcoming and nice than Reddit was, and so far that definitely seems to be true.
Foreigner has been on my to-read list for a while, but I'm always daunted by a 10+ book series. Now I'm trying to read for at least an hour a day.

I don't think most celebrities would want to interact with the Reddit community outside the highly moderated environment of an AMA -- the ones who would already do. (Wil Wheaton, Brandon Sanderson, etc.)

Haha that's a crazy premise but it looks really fun. Playstation Plus seems like a good deal for a set of new games every month.

I've been wanting to play Alien: Isolation but I might be too chicken. On a scale from 1 - 10 how scary is it so far?

To get us started: Recently I really like the show Mr. Robot. The pilot episode is one of the best I've seen in a while, and it's fun to see a show with a cyberpunk feel to it. Also, depictions of hackers on TV shows usually seem ridiculous, but this one (to my untrained eye) at least feels somewhat realistic.

I would love to see a whole movie like this. The video description says it was made in Blender, aside from that I'm not sure.

If the tone and visual style of the show are at all similar to this teaser, I'm really excited!
