When you doom scroll so much, you no longer watch YouTube shorts for entertainment, you just do it because you are addicted to the scrolling motion. Excessive exposure may result in endless scrolling through any app that has shorts, including but not limited to LinkedIn.
Please help me. Seriously, this is a cry for help. I’ve been doom scrolling so much that now I am now phantom scrolling.

(Verb) The action of getting stuck scrolling social media for hours on end, sometimes becoming impossible to stop. The victim often loses track of time, forgets tasks, and eventually numbs their brain into a deep fog. Often times the content is considered “Brain Rot” and the user’s vision can even become impaired, feeling as though they are several feet from the screen. Can be a common side effect of ADD/ADHD.
