Anybody else feel a sense of hyper responsibility to constantly answer community posts?
Whether it's Reddit or Facebook groups, I noticed this recently: that I feel a strong sense of responsibility to constantly be online and to be responding to people and answering questions even though there's tons of people who could also do that. Like I feel bad when I miss updates and if someone hasn't responded to a question I feel obligated to do so. I found myself constantly on Reddit keeping up with all of the new posts on communities I follow. And I just realized I think it might be because of my OCD...does anyone else experience this?
