For all the friends who’ve said ‘It’s great that you’re free of these apps. I need to delete Facebook/Instagram too, but…’
I realized underneath all the frustration, low energy, brain fog, insomnia, and general bad mood… is an intense pain flare.
After years following the 24 hour news cycle in a constant effort to stay as informed as possible, 2020 finally burned me out.
