Making a decision about choosing a college and a partner can be very difficult, but it should be because it affects your whole life. But if someone spends hours choosing a shirt to wear or can't decide if they want ham or salami on their pizza, that's another thing that can make life much more difficult.
"Indecisiveness is a symptom of depression, and also a characteristic of obsessive-compulsive disorder," explained psychiatrist Jurgen Bruner in Munich.
Previously, it was thought that indecisiveness was at the root of obsessive-compulsive disorder.
People who are often indecisive can benefit from behavioral therapy because the therapist offers them strategies that allow them to make a decision more quickly and without doubting it.
At the same time, the therapist and the patient work together on the patient's psychological problems. With a little luck, the choice between ham and salami on pizza will no longer be a problem, reports Index.
