Aboulomania
As a recent graduate with no idea about which career direction to head in, I certainly empathise with this one. Aboulomania is a rare and little-known disorder which involves bouts of crippling indecision. Whilst it’s normal for people to be hesitant about making difficult decisions, sufferers of Aboulomania will obsess and fixate on a decision in a way that severely hinders normal functioning. Sufferers tend to hypothesize the outcome of their decision and preoccupy themselves with reasons why any decision will have a negative outcome. Seemingly simple choices such as whether or not to go out can paralyze sufferers with indecision, anxiety and stress.
