Making mistakes

Start slow. Send an email to a friend without checking, or check one less time. Taper it. It will feel horrible but keep going!

I don't know how to make it stop but you're not alone. takes me soooo long to submit an invoice bc I keep rereading the invoice number, amount and due date over and over again to make sure it's right. the perfectionism with work is hard to deal with because it feels very necessary. one time I did send in an invoice with the wrong date....and everything was okay (granted if I messed up the invoice number or amount it wouldn't have been okay but I guess the invoice date doesn't matter as much) emails seem to be not as high stakes for me because I just know I can just send another one and say "disregard my previous email, I meant to say____" can you do this?

I always feel something will be used against me

This is one of my biggest issues. What I have found helpful is to just check once and then hit the send button. The more you check the more uncertain you will become. But I know how hard it is to do.

But that's the fight. You got this. Start slow

I can relate to this!!! This is just how OCD works. You need you apply ERP therapy to this. After a time, you will be able to break out of it. Have you heard of ERP? I can explain it if you want:):)
