Psychology says people who keep scrolling instead of starting work may be avoiding a discomfort

Procrastination often stems from evading unpleasant emotions tied to challenging tasks. People are naturally drawn to immediate pleasures rather than the long-term rewards of accomplishing their responsibilities. Studies show that while distractions such as social media offer a quick escape, they often lead to feelings of guilt. Techniques like dividing tasks into manageable parts and scheduling specific times for leisure can effectively combat procrastination.
