LW, the more you have to give away, the harder it is to give. And not just out of some kind of moral failure of humans - it's easier to toss $10 at someone (even if that's a days wage) than $100,000 just because there are a lot more options for people to do real damage with the $100,000 if you choose poorly who to give it to. So I don't judge people who give less than they might out of just choice paralysis (that is also me.)
There are classes available on charitable giving for high-income people and people who have just come into money, how much to give, how to decide where to give, how to structure your giving. You're probably on the lower end of what they're aimed at, but they would probably be useful in helping you feel more confident about how to use your income.
(Also, if you give over half of it to 501(c)3s you'll be paying a lot less in income tax. So there's that - in some ways for people in your income bracket, giving to charity is a way to choose how your money will be used for the greater good yourself, rather than letting the government decide what the greater good is. If you're happy letting the government decide, though, just keep paying your taxes!)
ETA: I'm going to also gently suggest you find a way to get involved with local charitable groups other than by giving them money. With that kind of income, lots of places will be happy to invite you to their functions or even their honorary boards, and as you get to know the actual people involved in the work in your area, it will get easier and easier to decide what to do with your money (they will ask you for it, and you will have a deep understanding of why they are asking.)
