Growing pains of detoxifying

Hey guys, its been a while since I have last been here. I have changed a lot since then. For one, I decided  to adopt digital minimalism which involves being more intentional with how you use your tech. Initially, I was just trying to go on a nofap journey but as I was going through it, I decided to minimize all the addictive technologies I had surrounded myself with. As I go deeper into into this journey I get peevish (the dopamine withdrawals) and more aware of how I'm feeling, simply put, I get bored. As I get border and boredest I also recognize a gaping void within which was temporarily filled by internet junk, and I realize that I feel lonely. These are feelings that I haven't expressed to anyone I know personally because I feel a little ashamed of them, all of it. As I was going through an interactive self-care routine I was encouraged to rech out to people in any manner possible and I decided to pour my feelings here.

I might sound miserable but I don't regret my decision; I just wish I had taken it sooner. I blame my misery on the big corporations with all their alluring traps. 

Sorry to be so heavy all of a sudden. Thanks for reading!
