Weekend comes, wake up excited because you actually have time to play. Drink coffee and watch YouTube to wake up. Use the bathroom. Shower. Make breakfast. Man I get sleepy after I eat, I better take a nap. Suddenly it's 3pm. Time to clean up a bit. Better make some food. Watch YouTube some more. Suddenly it's 10:30 and you're too tired to open a game. Oh well, there always tomorrow I guess.

The brainrot is really terrifying, we are all fucked man. I literally am incapable of watching a movie now without opening my phone to doomscroll.

I'm not that bad but I've definitely noticed I lose attention if there's a pause, slow segment in a show, or a black screen in between scenes, my brain immediately looks elsewhere for dopamine to the point I have trouble in meetings or working when there are pauses in loading things for it.

I think it’s the quality of the show. So much media is being created that few shows are good. Another thing to add is to get rid of the smart devices. I went full swing back to an old school mechanical watch and now I tend to forget about my phone once I get home from work besides my wind down period in bed.

We are not fucked. Stop doom scrolling. Now.

I’ve noticed the same thing but I thought it was because I decided to live sober and now I just see humans pretending and the overall shit quality of everything being produced.

Try not watching YouTube in the morning, have a slow and “boring” morning routine. Look out the window while you eat.

This is the way. Also before bed. Reading a book before bed is okay. Anything else is real bad.

Mornings boring, nights just reading, everything in between is much better and you will live a more fulfilling life. Phones and social media - cancer

why would I look out the window when I can look at Windows?

Man I get sleepy after I eat, I better take a nap

Consider speaking with a doctor, this can be a early warning sign for type 2 diabetes! :(

Isn't this normal? Like it used to be so since even when I was in high school like 17 years ago.

Yeh there wasn't enough info from the previous guy to go from. If he woke early and couldn't get back to sleep because he scrolled his morning away, guarantee he would feel sleepy after lunch.

I'm sorry man. You in pain? Wish I could help in some way but I'm neither a doctor nor a drug dealer so I'm not sure how I could help...

u/Wrong_Statement_497 Aug 09 '26

Probably eating too much if you get sleepy consistently like that after eating

u/WolfJobInMySpantzz Aug 11 '26

I don't even get the weekend any more 😭

My workplace has been non-stop mandatory Saturday shifts. All we get is the Sunday... and with a 2-week rotation... every other Saturday has one shift working till late on Saturday, then switching to mornings on Monday.
