OCD and Over Communication
I’m not certain if it’s specific to me or not, but my OCD has always revolved around communicating too much and typically it’s via some form of typing. It’s a big reason I thought this app would help. I’ve noticed it’s very self sabotaging and detrimental. Does anyone else have something similar and any advice for it? My hope is here I can turn it into something positive.

I have struggled with something similar before but from an ADHD lens it is a result of Limerance and often termed 'love bombing'. Essentially you get a dopamine spike from both sending and expecting a response to a message then feel disappointed or even rejected when there is no response resulting in sending another message.... Fortunately I am aware of it and only occasionally, when my patience is particularly tested usually when I'm emotionally engaged, succumbed to it.
