I find myself spending way more time than I’d like scrolling this site, Reddit, Twitter, etc. I want to limit my digital use to bare necessities, but when I’m mentally exhausted (poor sleep, after work, etc.) it’s kind of all I have the energy to do.
I feel like doing literally nothing, getting lost in my thoughts can be even MORE tiring than using the internet lol. Maybe that’s normal, or maybe it’s like my depressive/anxious brain refusing to shut off or be nice.
Anyway, if you weren’t spending your time online, how would you shut your brain off and unwind?
if i take some stims to get my brain to stop all the exhausting ADHD shit i find myself sometimes unplugging for huge chunks of time just to do like worldbuilding or planning stuff or actually thinking about some topic again.
otherwise i’ve basically lost my capacity to unwind i used to use cannabis for it but until it’s federally legal i can’t risk getting the piss dirty in case i need to hop jobs
