1779638261343 Everyone is moving at such a rapid pace I can't keep up with it anymore. Anything I find on the internet moves on before I'm even able to settle into it. I've since disconnected myself from the majority of the internet, and it's been refreshing for the most part. But I know I can't keep living this lifestyle of avoidance forever.

Avoidance? or finding a balance?
I'm not sure anymore. My definition of avoidance is probably messed up. I stick to what I am familiar with and stray away from parts of the internet that are more actively online? It's hard to put it into words but some communities/medias on the internet leave me feeling burnt out and worse compared to some others.

I used to be all over the internet and then four years ago I deleted all of my social media and stopped trying to keep up with "trends" and even the news. I do not need to know what is "cool" and "in" or even what the latest meme is. I spent the first 30 years of my life without that stuff, I can easily live the rest without it too. It felt weird to be disconnected at first but ultimately I found myself feeling much less stressed over not having to "keep up" with everything.

To each their own. As CC said, it is about finding balance.
