Sometimes I catch myself scrolling without even realizing how much time has passed. One minute I’m checking a message, and the next I’ve gone down a rabbit hole of news updates, funny clips, and endless feeds that leave me more drained than entertained. I’ve noticed how easy it is to let the internet dictate my moods, one post can inspire me, while another makes me feel like I’m not doing enough with my life. That’s when I started thinking seriously about internet self-care, not as a trend but as something I actually need.

For me, it’s become about being intentional. I ask myself: why am I opening this app right now? If I don’t have a good reason, I try to put the phone down. I’ve also started curating my feeds more carefully, muting content that makes me anxious or constantly pushes me into comparison, and following accounts that genuinely make me feel lighter or teach me something useful. It’s not always easy, but even small choices like these have made a difference in how I feel online.

What I’ve realized is that internet self-care isn’t about quitting the digital world altogether, it’s about making sure my online life supports the life I want offline. When I step back from endless scrolling, I find more space for things that actually matter: real conversations, hobbies I’ve been neglecting, and even simple moments of quiet. The internet will always be there, but how I choose to engage with it is up to me. And I think that’s the most powerful part, remembering that I’m in control of my digital space, not the other way around.
