#stop doomscrolling

[christinaroseandrews]

Goose is here as a break from Doomscrolling.

Stare into these loving, yet brainless, orange boy eyes and have a moment of calm.

BEHOLD THE TRANS BLAHAJ

[someguywriting]

Put away your phone, stop scrolling, and go to sleep.

Your worrying isn't going to affect anything but your mental health. There's no use in panicking.

Breathe. Have a sip of water. Please take care of yourself. You matter, and you are going to be okay.

i was doomscrolling through a dumb internet argument from 2022 in the comments section of a tumblr post but then i remembered that i have free will and decided to close out my tab and make myself a cup of hot chocolate instead

What are you doing 🤨🤨🤨 (via figi_sisters)

[eggzeroni]

Stop.

You may need to know this.

The amount of people that need to hear this breaks my heart.

If you do not have a drive, it's time you find one.

Get up and stop Doom scrolling. Do something with your life.

If you genuinely don't enjoy scrolling, get out there and live life the way it was intended. The amount of people I see scrolling all day is saddening, to say the least.

It's time to do what you enjoy, and make time for yourself. If you can't take care of yourself, how do you expect to take care of others?

Push the to do list aside, and focus on your own needs.

Eat, rest, enjoy life.

And most importantly,

If you're upset with how your life is going,

That's not a life.

That's just survival.

Daily check in with Joy.

Joy: Hey, you. Stop doomscrolling and looking at all the bad stuff on your feed. Stop it, you deserve better.

Based on this video.

This is a doomscrolling checkpoint. Stop scrolling for a bit. Eat something, drink some water, check in with your support system, take your meds, get yourself cleaned up, and take some deep breaths.

I know this is the piss on the poor website, but sometimes I think y’all need to look up childhood development milestones and reacquaint yourselves with what’s considered normal.

Elementary school students are struggling to read and write?

Kindergartners can’t pay attention?

Second graders don’t understand how computers work?

Yeah, go figure. They’re little kids. They’re just beginning to learn how to do things. Give them time.

STOP

This is a warning from Akane Tendo! If you keep doomscrolling, she’s gonna beat you up! I suggest you take a break, get something to drink, and stretch your arms and legs! You can always come back later, but if you don’t stop and take care of yourself, you’re gonna regret it!

You are allowed to blorbopost. You are allowed to have a blog that doesn't veer very far into politics. You are allowed to get your information from actual news sources, and not from social media. (In fact, please do.) You are allowed to use Tumblr for blorboposting more than activism. You are allowed to take breaks and look after your mental health. (In fact, you should; the cause(s) you're fighting for need the best of you, not the rest of you, and more than that, you need the best of you, which means you gotta take care of yourself.) You are allowed to take a step back from social media. You are allowed to turn off the push notifications. You are allowed to take a step back from the news cycle. You are allowed to restrict or turn off comments. You are allowed to not read the comments. You are allowed to ignore the naysayers and critics. (You would never be able to "do enough" for them, anyway.) You are allowed to not feel guilty. You are allowed to do your most important work off social media. (And honestly? That's where the lion's share of the important work gets done anyway.) You are allowed to block tags. You are allowed to block users and blogs. (Yes, even me.) You are allowed to have hobbies, interests, and yes, joy. Even during the toughest times. You are allowed to walk away from conversations that aren't going anywhere good. You are allowed to stop doomscrolling, and to recognize that there is a difference between staying informed and doomscrolling.

Hey friend, you should not have other peoples thoughts and stresses in your head. Go for a walk. Listen to some music you like. Maybe practice something or do a little hobby? When was the last time you did something creative that you enjoy? You’re Okay, put the phone down. Everything good will still be here when you pick it back up, just take a break. You’re Okay. Okay? Now go on, have fun.
