My CGM updates every five minutes. There is always new information to take in, and I’m addicted. How many times a day did I look at my phone before this app? It can’t have been a flattering figure. How much worse has it gotten with my CGM? What percentage of my time is spent checking its readings? Great, more numbers running through my head as I try to calculate how risk-averse and bad at breaking routines I was to begin with, and how much more severe those tendencies are now. I wonder if it’s still called doomscrolling if it’s not social media you’re looking at.
