I unfortunately have horrible inbox anxiety. I'm for some reason afraid of checking my text messages, emails, answering calls, checking voicemails, and mail. I don't know why or how this came on but I've been dealing with it for years and it's ruining my life. I can't find any resources that have helped me online so far most of what I find is about people who obsessively check their messages in fear of missing something and that's not my issue.
If anyone else has gone through this and has read anything on it or knows any good books that could help me that would be much appreciated.

This isn’t about inboxes specifically or anything, but you might get something out of “Radical Acceptance” by Tara Brach. It has a lot to do with identify the source of fears that cause anxiety and how to accept those things in a way that is not totally debilitating.
