A similar issue I have is when people text me constantly. I feel immediately obligated to respond, even if I'm in the middle of something, because I think they'll get mad at me for ignoring them. Which means I have to juggle between texting and doing the other thing, causing me to get stressed out. I wish I could just ignore them for hours... I leave myself on offline mode a lot so I can actually try and focus without the constant distraction.

Mood. The anxiety is real and I see you. I too leave myself in offline mode on both Playstation and Discord for weeks at a time. You're not alone, friend!
