You're three hours deep into scrolling and everyone else's life looks perfect — the vacations, the promotions, the relationships. Your thumb keeps moving and your self-worth keeps shrinking.
What started with the scroll just got more complicated. Now you need to identify your personal comparison triggers before they hijack your mood — and the situation is shifting faster than your first approach can handle.
