Does anyone else feel anxious right before they post something on tumblr? Not because you are afraid of being attacked by SJWs but because your posts are personal reflections of yourself. Like you put a little piece of yourself in each and every post. And the moment you post something only to find out a moment later someone unfollowed you because of that post, it feels like a personal slight. As if you went, "Here, this is me. What do you think?" "Nope. You suck. Bye." So, now I get anxious whenever I am about to post something because of this.

I don't use tumblr, but I feel that way about all public posts everywhere, under any name. That's why I like to be anon/

Imo one of the biggest mistakes in life is to think that strangers are obsessed with you and waiting for a moment you screw up - truth is, the vast majority of people just don't care that much to give it that deep a thought, so you're really reaching if you see it as a personal slight while in fact it's just someone scrolling down on the internet and spending 0.3 of second clicking a button.

For real. And if that kind of anxiety really bothers you, I find an effective defense mechanism is to just puff up your ego. "What, you unfriended me? Pfft, later loser I'm clearly too awesome for you, whatevah, whatevah, I do what I waaaahnt"

Or you can just use logic: following a lot of people is hard work and someone has to go - who knows, maybe the unfollower drew an elaborate lottery on who to eliminate and is actually crying themselves to sleep right now ... wait, I said logic.

I'm ALL about this tactic to help get around anxiety. I post everything publicly and have for years now. Most of it's even got my face on it. If it freaks you out that some people might be watching - go with the idea that EVERYONE'S watching and think about how cool that makes you.

Sounds silly, but really - it helps me stay brave.

once you reach a certain level of popularity that all changes. When I became a BNF and reblogged something that was "problematic", it was literally instantly pounced on.

[seventh_seal]

True, but most people aren't BNF's and I understood the OP to mean they're anxious posting anything, not potentially problematic stuff (though almost anything has the potential to be considered problematic on Tumblr, that's also true ...)
