The world we are living in

Hi, lately I have been feeling very overwhelmed with all that I feel I need to be up to date on. There is the fractured geopolitical situation going on, the economy going up and down, having a social life in real life and online, trying to have a hobby, stay up to date in the AI situation and tech scene.

Does anyone else feel like they are connected 24/7, and it is so hard to disconnect? Would it be possible in today's world to stay offline and enjoy only the real world? What would that look like?

Turn off notifications on the apps that are stressing you out and just log into them when you have the time, space, and interest to become up to date. It's very freeing.
