    Does it cause you anxiety thinking about replying? Because that’s what it’s like for me

      It gives me guilt every time I see the unread notification from weeks ago.

        Yeah, that checks out. I think I need to get checked out for ADHD. Maybe I’ll start the process tomorrow 🤣

      I currently have 301 unread text messages (not even close to my high score). For me, the anxiety wore off and was replaced with a sense of defeated relief.

      If I get bored, I can go through them without feeling any obligation to respond at all.
