WISE ASS WEDNESDAY

The Doomscroll Trap: What Your Screen is Really Doing to Your Soul

[HERO] The Doomscroll Trap: What Your Screen is Really Doing to Your Soul

It's 2:47 AM and I'm still scrolling.

My thumb moves automatically, swipe, tap, swipe, through an endless feed of bad news, hot takes, arguments between strangers, and whatever fresh catastrophe just hit the internet. My eyes burn. My neck aches. I know I should put the phone down. I know I need sleep. But there's this feeling, right? This nagging sense that if I stop now, I'll miss something important. Something I need to know to feel... what? Safe? Informed? In control?

Except I don't feel any of those things. I feel like shit.

Welcome to the doomscroll trap, friends. And if you're reading this, chances are you know exactly what I'm talking about.
