This isn't a physical problem so much as a student in need of help.
Im 15 years old and in grade 10. not to toot my own horn but I'm a great student. My marks are in the high 90s but I have a problem with procrastination. Even now im procrastinating about homework.
Like in school I get assignments and maybe a week or two to complete it so I think to myself "Okay, I've got plenty of time to do it" so I put it off for a little bit. (Maybe just one night so I can have some time to relax) ,but then I get even more homework the next day, so I put it of a little more and a little more till it nearly comes down to a a day or 2 before its due and I have to write an entire essay.
This problem has been getting worse for me too, and I really don't know how to handle it. I've looked up techniques on Google, but none really seem to help me much
So please, I need help!

Well - first I must say how awesome it is that you are so self-aware at your age to even think there is a problem - then you reaching out for help makes it even better. Good for you! You sound like you are proud of yourself, and you should be!
So, about your "issue". I'm conflicted honestly. Some people are known to actually be more productive an turn out a better product when they are under pressure and have deadlines. I wonder if this is the case for you. If you have what you perceive to be too much time to do a project, maybe you are mentally putting it off to create artificial pressure for yourself because you know the result will be a better project.
Now - all that said - there are lots of books and systems etc to help you with time management. Maybe just keeping a good date book and to do list. A PDA with reminders would certainly help even more with that. All in all, it doesn't sound like you are doing that bad with managing your issue. I hope this helps a little. If there is anything more specific let us know!
Good luck to you.
