@racheeeel022: The lift. The queue. The red light. The ninety seconds waiting for the kettle. Not one of them gets sat through anymore. You think you're bad at being bored. You're not. You're just extremely well practiced at never having to be. Boredom used to be the room where ideas showed up. The shower thought, the walk where the problem solved itself, the long car ride where you worked out what you actually wanted. Those all needed an empty moment, and you have stopped giving yourself any. Start with one queue. Leave it in your pocket. Feel how loud it gets and don't rescue yourself. It takes about a week to stop feeling like an emergency. . . . #doomscrolling #boredom #phoneaddiction #screentime #digitaldetox
