I’ve noticed YouTube specifically has become more addictive, I never used to be one to sit and scroll for long durations before but I often catch myself spending way too long on shorts now

Even people or older generations seem to be getting sucked in nowadays

    If you find yourself suddenly grasping for more and more time escaping reality consider seeing a psychiatrist.

    You could have major depression: it was one of my symptoms.

        It’s not a diagnosis it’s encouragement to see someone about an issue you’ve expressed.

          Therapists are gonna be pretty busy then because it’s a good proportion of people I know that have been sucked into this kind of content one way or another more than they’d like

        If you interpret “talk to a doctor” as diagnosing someone consider seeing a dictionary
