watching movies makes me feel better mentally and emotionally unlike doomscrolling tends to make me fee like a crap

This is literally me. A 90-minute film now counts as my big win of the week.

Might be an unorthodox solution for poor attention span, but it actually worked for me. Keep the radio on whenever you’re doomscrolling. No, not podcasts, absolutely not Spotify or YouTube. Actual old school radio where you have no control over what you’ll hear next (other than changing the station).
Over time you’ll realize that you struggle to scroll for hours with radio blasting in the background and you’ll catch yourself ditching the phone and grooving to the songs you haven’t heard in ages and getting invested in radio shows.
Modern problems sometimes require vintage solutions. The first thing I do when I get home from work now is turn on the radio, sometimes I don’t even look at my phone for hours.

It is actually the most productive time of my day apart from the casual mandatory walk around the town

“Were you in the office today?”
– “No, but I watched the office, so I think that counts.”

And here my attention span is cooked. I can’t watch anything beyond 30 seconds.

Your brain would be happier if you just picked a movie and watched it instead of doom scrolling.

I was super tired yesterday, but I didn’t want to nap because I could be productive or I could play video games or watch TV I’ve been meaning to watch.
I really needed some sleep, but my brain wouldn’t let me “waste” my weekend.
Less of a brain rot thing, more of not enough time to do things

Watching a movie is productive. Much like reading a book, or listening to music.
