Reddit triggers OCD

Yes and it makes sense bc even if something isn’t likely to happen, the way the internet is if something happens to a few people they usually manage to find each other in a thread or whatever. So it can seem like stuff is really common when it’s not. I deleted Reddit because I would see this incel posts pop up all the time and I started to think that’s how all men felt about women deep down. But ever since deleting it I barely see shit like that anymore or think about it too much

Can relate to this, but with twitter. I think a lot of social media in general can be really bad if you arent careful at all about how you use it, or even use it at all in many cases. Id say cutting it out is most likely a good idea, since honestly social media can be damaging to well...anyone

I am so sorry you've been feeling anxious with reddit. I've totally thought about that same dilemma--would leaving this be avoidance or would it be a good thing?! Man, the Internet is so incredibly full of contention. Contentious and immature. It makes me feel bad scrolling through any websites because so many comments are so jaded and mean-spirited when they might not be in real life. It really feels like a heavy weight on your shoulders. It makes me anxious for sure!! And part of that for me definitely is OCD, but at the same time, no one deserves to be weighed down by meaningless mean/harsh words!! Everyone deserves an uplifting and positive place. If you feel like deleting Reddit, dude I do not blame you!!

Yes. Reddit triggers OCD bad. I deleted the app actually because i was getting really bad anxiety and my mind was just picking up everything i read and making this shit i’m dealing with worse.

I feel like Reddit triggers literally everything even outside of OCD bro Reddit is actually crazy
