See any downsides to the ADD "body double" tactic besides the cost of keeping the body double cooperative?
If it doesn't work (because your procrastination has different or additional causes), shame could create an additional ugh field or magnify the one you already have.
(But that risk is common to most anti-akrasia tactics, and the antidote is the same: realize that until this procrastination instance is fixed, you don't (and can't) really know what's causing it.)
