This is so painfully relatable. And it's not even that I don't want to read the popular fic!! Like I wanted to read flight risk for months before I finally was able to get myself to read it. And I genuinely enjoyed it so much when I DID finally read it!!

yeah totally agree! i also have OCD and i think part of it is avoiding things ive decided i will like 'too much'??? and i have to wait for them to cool off before the time is right to enjoy it???

but i did make an effort to watch lots of movies and read books last year so! slow progress 🥲

Oh gosh I can imagine, it's probably like a bunch of stuff recommended to you sounds right up your alley but there's only so many hours in a day

It took me a week with nearly non stop reading while awake to read a 500k fanfic, I'm slow to read too
