Doom-scrolling.

Life and the world isn't that bad. Like, in some parts it is, but people need to understand that you alone cannot exactly control everything on how they work. They're going to happen anyways. The media has, for decades, successfully ingrained people's minds and mentalities to believe everything must be bad by the minute and to always expect the worse.

But if you stop doom-scrolling for prolonged periods of time and realize this, things aren't as bad as projected.
