For anyone who has ever judged anyone for not responding to them or "ignoring" them.
If I forget to get back to someone or forgot to do something, the longer that passes, the more anxious I get. And then doing that thing becomes harder and harder.
For example, if I need to write an email and I push it off, the next few days I'll be thinking about writing the email and get anxious about it. I'd get so anxious that I won't be able to write it so I push it off more until I force myself to do it. While doing it and afterwards I feel a horrible amount of anxiety. And then I'm so anxious about the whole thing that I don't even feel relief after I've done it.

I could have written this post too.
Thing is, people would never guess it of me. I write public emails fairly often, and nobody would guess how much anxiety I get from responding to a simple "thank you, that was really inspiring!" email.
I feel like sending out a public email explaining this so people don't feel bad that I'm ignoring them.
I think it's related to a perfectionist attitude even in writing stupid little emails.
