With the escalation in Gaza and West Bank on top of the incident I’m going to limit how much I spend on telegram, lemmy, etc. because I can get massively hyperfocussed on this shit. Feels a lot like when the Ukraine Russia war heated up and I was stuck to my phone 8 hours a day.

I’m lucky enough to have started my meds recently which are absolutely eviscerating my anxiety, but others aren’t so lucky.

Maybe delete a couple of apps and limit your exposure for a couple of days so even if you DO doomscroll it’s less paralysing.

The new world struggles to be born ❤️

    weird timing. I was hyperfixating, and it got to a point where I cried. i rarely cry, and yet the cruelty is just too much. justice for palestine ✊️

      Absolutely. Im so numb to the violence but it still overwhelms me. It’s good that you still feel that emotion for others, we must always remember that a revolutionary is guided by great feelings of love ❤️
