Photoshop CC on Mac Constantly Updating Text Layers

Has anyone had this issue recently? My photoshop was running fine on Friday, and by Monday it had started updating the text layers on every single photoshop file I open. It's greatly slowing down my work and productivity. Even if I disable the box when opening the files, it still takes a very long time to edit text (I believe it is still updating them). I've uninstalled/reinstalled not only PS but my whole CC and it's still an issue. None of my settings were changed from when it was fine to when the problems started. Even if I let it update the files (takes at least 5 minutes to open a file each time due to updating), it's still very slow to edit the text.

Anytime you run into unexpected behavior in Photoshop, more than likely Preferences (That file that keeps everything as you left it on exit) has been corrupted.

Let's try a reset:

Just tried, and that wasn't the answer. Thank you for your advice though!

Then corrupted font caches makes better sense. Try the font troubleshooting guide in post 2.

Mac is NOTORIOUS for corrupt font caches.  That is the most likely cause of this problem.  You can (usually) solve that by going through the steps laid in Troubleshoot fonts in Adobe applications | Mac OS X
