Why do many people procrastinate, even though they know taxes are due annually? What does it say about the person who procrastinates with taxes or who can’t move forward in a timely manner with other decisions or actions?

Dr. Clyde Flanagan, a psychiatrist with the University of South Carolina School of Medicine, can discuss the characteristics of the person who procrastinates regularly and when procrastination is a sign of a more serious problem. Flanagan will be available during the morning of Friday, April 11, for interviews.

To arrange interviews, call Karen Petit or Bond Nickles at 803-777-5400.
