Bed Rotting: How Your Perfect Escape Hatch Becomes a Burnout Trap
Explores the concept of “bedrotting,” which refers to spending excessive time in bed while awake—scrolling, binge-watching, or avoiding responsibilities—as a way to cope with feeling overwhelmed or burnt out. While it may feel comforting at first, prolonged bedrotting can worsen mental health issues like depression and anxiety. Warning signs include difficulty resisting staying in bed, increased anxiety from procrastination, reduced self-esteem from inactivity, and concern from loved ones. The suggested approach is not to aim for immediate perfection, but to start small—completing one task or doing light exercise—to gradually rebuild motivation and mental resilience.
