Karzus :
It sounds small, but take breaks; and sit with some of the feelings and regulate them after. I used to scroll, get activated then immediately try to go and game, relax or go to work; but I was still carrying the emotional weight and was just becoming more dysregulated. Now I try to only scroll, if I know I have time and space to sit, and process - I also try not to binge for as much as I used to. Being informed is key, but seeing the same event or headline 29 different times doesn’t aid that. Something I try to do regardless, but general regulation time is helpful for me. I find music to be an emotional lever and release. Sometimes I need a good cry or to feel my anger, and music enables that. I can be a bit.. detached from my emotions otherwise, even while still being overwhelmed by them, and activated. The classic, you can’t think your way through your feelings, you need to feel them. I’m sure you know all this. Stay strong, keep safe, and know you’re doing what you can within your power. 💚
