People who equate procrastination with laziness do not have an adequate understanding of the problem and the psychology that lies behind it. However, even those people who understand that procrastination may well be a manifestation of a deeper problem may still consider that the perpetrator is procrastinating about seeking help.

Some of those with a tendency to procrastinate may in fact be suffering from depression or even attention deficit disorder which can both be underlying causes of procrastination. While procrastination is considered a behavioral disorder, by treating other diagnosed issues it may be possible to offer an effective remedy for procrastination at the same time. Frequently it is recommended that chronic procrastinators visit a therapist or other mental health professional to determine if there are associated treatable issues causing them to consistently put things off.
