>>108510362You have bigger problems than you think
but why do all zoomers have adhd
>>108510405Adressing symptoms is still useful, even if it's not directly affecting the root cause.Pain meds don't remove the source of the pain, but they allow you to function with the pain. A cast doesn't help the bone heal faster, but it allows it to heal straight and not get fucked when moved or touched. Anxiety meds don't remove the source of the anxiety, but they allow you to have a cleaner head to start working on it.

No different to them blaming McDonald's for being fat.

>>108510474I cannot fucking stand millennial therapy speak
>>108510014There's a reason why notifications and other distractions are pushed into watches etc.
>>108510014I don't know, normally you grow out of the phase of buying shit for the sake of a quick adrenaline boost. But I guess, the development of the prefrontal cortex is much slower in the US.My purchases are typically delayed by years sometimes borderline a decade.
>>108510014>my favorite old tech to stop being distracted is a bunch of old toys that distract me?
>>108510014Its not just zoomer, its every fucking millenial aswellCollecting became like one of the most popular "hobby" (lol) people are collecting mindlessly thing they do not WANT or CARE about. The sales will never drop because a lot of the people that put money "or invest" into those shit are already wealthy, so 50$ or 500$ ain't gonna change a thing
