I can't stop writing like an edgelord!

​

As the title says whenever I touch my keyboard it's like I get possessed by a 15 year old boy and I write like the world owes me something. When I'm writing, I don't even notice but literally the second I finish, I get post-write clarity and cringe. I write like the main character in 'the player hides his past', it's like I accidentally pad every description with unnecessarily fancy words and descriptions until it makes no sense. Sometimes it's fine, but when I just wanna write my omegaverse fanfic it feels so weird and out of place to read. When I actively try not to, my writing feels boring and I go back and add more. I guess this is a self imposed problem and I definitely could resolve it, but does anyone know how I can stop writing like every paragraph needs to be an in depth analysis of what's happening?
