I’m not sure if i have anxiety or adhd or im just introverted and procrastinating lol

1. I started biting my nails since i was a kid. I tried hard to get rid of this habit but its not something i can control. I put on nail polish usually but once it falls ill start biting them or fixing them with nail clippers. A little bit of unsmoothness on my nails will bother me a LOT, and ill just sit there and keep fixing it for hours straight, instead of doing any work. Literally every 10 mins i would find somewhere bothering me on my nails.

2. I also overthink a lot. It might be influenced by my mom who kept telling me that others might think negatively about me bc of any barely noticeable details about what i do/how i look, so now i will just replay some scenarios in my head hundreds of times, feel bad about myself, and had to take deep breaths, say to myself “its ok” out loud, or make some sudden noises to make my mind jump out of that vicious loop.

3. Recently i feel that my attention span is getting even shorter. I will sit down for work and get distracted after 5mins and start watching YouTube videos for hours. I notice myself doing that, and i would think “maybe i should go back to work”, but the other part of my mind is like numb and fail to take any action. To the point that im only able to focus for a long time under pressure, like a day before meeting or exams.

Idk if it is just bad work ethics, procrastination, introversion, or i should get a check up for anxiety/adhd. Like i heard other ppl relate to me on point 2&amp;3, so idk if its just some common problems that i can just work it out.

Either way, can anyone give me any advice on whether to get a diagnosis or smth i could do on my own to mitigate these behaviors? Thanks!!
