I, much like basically everyone here, have been avoiding Reddit when possible, and the content here just doesn't hit the same. My fried dopamine receptors were certainly screaming for stimulation early on but now I feel an urge to touch grass and breathe fresh air. What is this? Am I dying? I still hate the angry lightbulb in the sky.

In all seriousness though, I'll admit that I was kind of addicted to Reddit and now I don't want to go near it. Maybe this will turn a new leaf for me. If not here, I'll probably find some other way to satiate my dopamine receptors through more productive means.

I used to go to bed after 3am sometimes reading that damned site. I think I did 1:30 last night. I really desperately needed to get away from there. Nothing about it was healthy. I can get my stupid depthhub and TIL style information from Wikipedia. I will miss the professionals chiming in until that starts to happen around here.

I definitely welcome the detox. I think I might have even felt it for real the first couple of days.
