I just bought the new Spiderman Multiverse movie to watch with the family. The wife is sleeping through it and the kiddo loves it. But I’m to ADHD to sit through it. Ugh frustrating.

Constant scrolling social media on your phone gifting you with small doses of dopamine causes this. I used to read a book every two weeks few years ago and I have reached a point recently where books were boring, movies were too long so I watched series only. Realization is the first step. Now you have to make steps to change this. I have swapped bedtime phone scrollig to reading and books again and lowered my daytime phone usage. I have also watch some educational youtibe videos instead of scrolling some social media. It has helped a lot and now I’m back into reading and much more patient.
My wife spends an incredible time scrolling through TikTok and instagram reels but she is perfectly capable on sitting through 10 hours a day to watch a dorama, still I have a hard time finishing a movie when I barely use social media
