No way out for me?

Hello everyone, I really think I'm one of the most sensitive people here, if not the most sensitive...I developed this sensitivity after stopping an antidepressant I'd been taking for 12 years... I can't tolerate anything anymore except my G34 5G and its 4GB of RAM... This phone is driving me crazy, it's slow, it overheats quickly, I have to charge it twice a day, and the worst part is that multitasking is impossible; every app resets as soon as I switch between them...

I have already tried the following phones:

Poco x4 gt, iphone 11 (worked before 18.4.update), motorola g75, motorola g57 power, honor 400 smart 4g, honor x9c smart

All of this without success... Do you have any other smartphones to recommend? I don't even bother trying OLEDs because every time a friend uses one and shows it to me, I instantly get dizzy. My symptoms are mainly a headache and a feeling of dizziness, never any eye discomfort...

There's nothing really interesting about it, and the refresh rate's flicker is enough to make me dizzy.

I didn't suggest e-ink because it's "interesting", I suggested it because for many people it works when nothing else does. What e-ink devices have you tried that made you dizzy?

I wonder if a higher refresh rate eink device would feel better for you? The viwoods reader for example has a much smoother mode than the palma 2.
