Thanks for the insight! What I appreciated about this piece was that it moved beyond the internet version of “dopamine detox” and actually explored the deeper psychological discomfort underneath constant stimulation and distraction.
Modern life makes constant stimulation feel normal now. Notifications, scrolling, streaming, multitasking, background noise, endless content. We rarely allow our minds to fully settle anymore.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts Keli. Choosing to limit stimulation requires a lot of effort and willpower. It’s definitely worth it, but willpower is limited, so we need to aim for sustainable long-term changes.
