This resonated with me so much! As lockdowns dragged on I became increasingly unable to put my phone down, and was caught between the stress of doom-scrolling and the knowledge that it was my one lifeline to connect with my people. I completely agree that finding balance is key and I'm trying to be more mindful when I pick up my phone, to understand what it is I actually need in that moment, instead of mindless scrolling.

Sorry for the slow response but yes you are right finding balance is key. Like the idea of using mindfulness to achieve this!
