Your Type
You know you shouldn't compare, but the screen always shows another version of 'success' reminding you of your shortcomings. Your offline need is triggered the moment you scroll past someone's promotion, trip, or relationship post — not because you're jealous, but because you're tired. Tired of maintaining a 'I'm doing well too' digital image, tired of evaluating your progress against others' highlight reels. You need to go offline not to escape but to return to a space where no scoring happens, reminding yourself: your life doesn't need someone else's coordinate system to find its position.
