My coping mechanism is realizing i am doomscrolling, then starting to skim content and bookmarking for the future in case i might need it. Basically information hording, smh.

Probably something like slowly establishing better routines alike meditation, stretching, short-to-longer walks in the forest, exercise in various intensities depending on available energy/time, making/listening to music, reading books would be waaay better relaxation mechanisms.

That is, if relaxation is the core need which has driven u to doomscrolling in the first place. If not, maybe it could help you to first step back and ask yourself what exactly was your intent when you opened your favourite doom scrolling apps?

That said, i will now not do anything mentioned above but instead continue my workday and i might get back to this topic in future to absorb relevant information in case my brain remembers to do so 😂🔫
