The term “doomscrolling” hasn’t slowed down one bit. Over the past 5 years, the trend has only continued to grow and still shows zero signs of slowing down. With the rise of AI, endless digital content, and increasingly addictive social media algorithms, doomscrolling has become easier than ever to access. Universities and major institutions like Harvard, Indiana University, and National Geographic have all studied the effects of doomscrolling and ways to prevent it. Yet despite the awareness, one thing became obvious: People don’t stop doomscrolling. @a1lon9 gave us the roadmap to bet on predictions, so why don’t we bet on the prediction that consumers will never take their eyes off their phones? That they’ll always sacrifice their sleep for “one more video”? In other words, people will ALWAYS doomscroll. For any new holders or people waiting for a reason to believe in us, here’s your reason. A narrative this relatable, this viral, and this deeply rooted in internet culture can’t be ignored. Doomscroll is not meta-dependent; it doesn’t depend on a catalyst or a viral tweet. It’s an ever-growing habit, which some say is an “addiction”. We are always looking for the next big narrative that the average person can relate to. Well, here it is. Disagree? Ask yourself: What do you do in your free time? What do you do before bed? Where do you find memes? How do trends spread? It all leads back to doomscrolling. So the real question isn’t: “Do you doomscroll?” It’s: “When do you NOT doomscroll?” Studies: Harvard: https://t.co/3sfd9er4Ec NCBI: https://t.co/uYxG6JXoUq UCD: https://t.co/D2DU8qbzSf UCSD: https://t.co/3s229CeLi1 IU: https://t.co/0HXAGbxVmZ

Disagree?

Ask yourself:

What do you do in your free time?
What do you do before bed?
Where do you find memes?
How do trends spread?

It all leads back to doomscrolling.

So the real question isn’t: “Do you doomscroll?”

It’s: “When do you NOT doomscroll?”
