Being burnt out on everything for ages isn't great when the internet is the only place left to socialize and do stuff. I've spent years typing up a lot of words about stuff I'm doing and what I'm into and sharing things I like and all of them just get flushed down the content feed like anything else. It's left me feeling pretty empty and devoid of any real personality since nothing I did online ever really mattered or stuck a single bit. I and many are mostly known by the media we're into which I dunno just seems weird to think about.
After being on the constant series of drip-fed dopamine slot machine sites for 15 years my ADHD no longer lights up from social media. It either broke past the killscreen or ran out of juice. Too young and lead-free to be content with the hellscape of Facebook, too old to rebuild my entire social circles from the ground up every 3 or 4 years. I already used to have to rebuild my offline social circles every several years from people randomly deciding I just wasn't human being material or worth being seen, so going online and continuing to be a nobody there too didn't really do anything for my confidence at surviving socially.
