So like did anyone else develop morality OCD from tumblr/tiktok/twitter/specific areas of social media prone to producing echo chambers

Cuz I’m so certain I’m not the only one still suffering from the compulsion to overanalyze everything I see and everything I say and do to ensure it is “morally perfect” otherwise my chest gets tight and I can’t shake the feeling that somebody is watching and waiting to “cancel” me

#it has taken YEARS for me to truly accept that this is a miserable way to live and I don’t deserve it #because being in discourse-centric echochamber corners of the internet had me CONVINCED that I HAD to feel guilt and shame #if I ever had a thought or feeling or opinion that wasnt ‘correct’ or if I didnt care ENOUGH about something then it #reflected my entire livelihood and values and worth #it has honest to god taken like. nearly a decade to TRULY feel like i don’t need to live my life by repenting #anyway sound off pls I wanna hear ppls experiences #I promise u can talk abt it and nothing bad will happen to u btw you’re allowed to talk about it #ocd #obsessive compulsive disorder #morality ocd #scrupulosity ocd #scrupulosity #actually ocd #neurodivergent #personal
