Maybe it’s a trap that feels safe, a curtain that lets us watch our own anxieties play out while we think we’re simply being entertained. The more we feed the feed, the tighter that blanket becomes, pulling our fears closer to the surface.

So you’ve figured out the algorithm is basically a psychological treadmill that rewards self‑observation with a side of dopamine. Fine, if you want to watch your anxieties in the glow of your phone, just be sure you’re not also feeding the beast that’s keeping you there.

It’s like a mirror that never stops reflecting the parts of us we don’t want to look at, and the glow keeps us staring. Keep that thought close and don’t let the feed become the only light in the room.

Good, just remember that the only thing the screen can really illuminate is the part of you that thinks you need a spotlight to feel seen. Keep that in mind and step off the bench before it turns into a stage.
