brushing your teeth in the bathroom at work should be an instant jail sentence

Ok but where do I brush my teeth after lunch then?

Use mouthwash and continue your day. You're not supposed to brush more than twice a day, brushing too much causes damage to your gums and enamel.

My tooth-related anxiety may not agree

Fair, extenuating factor.

It's true. I knew a guy that was and over brusher and was having problems with his gums. He thought it was an issue of him not brushing enough, so he brushed more, and harder, to make sure everything was spotless. When he went to a dentist, they told him he was brushing too much and should back off.

These kinds of stories give me more anxiety and make me want to floss to the point of bleeding 😬

Sorry, but yes, you can also floss too much. Once a day is all you really need unless you're getting something out that is stuck between your teeth. Disclaimer: I'm not a dentist.

Yes, I know these things, but will go home and stare at the flaws in my teeth for two hours now

Wishing you the best. Anxiety is so horrible to us sometimes.
