That Moment

I was at home and had been scrolling through Instagram for an hour when I suddenly felt a pain in my right hand. My fingers felt as if they were swelling, and it was impossible to close my hand or move them. That was the moment the questioning started. I had hurt my hand – and for what? What had motivated me to do this to myself? There was no motivation and no joy. Just one hour of my day that had given me no real happiness, only pain.

From then on, I decided to put my phone aside before bedtime and to uninstall the apps I don't need.
