When couples get trapped in shared doom-scrolling cycles

My spouse and I are both doom-scrolling news and social media every night and we're bringing this anxious energy into our relationship but we can't seem to stop even though we both know it's making us miserable. We're sharing this digital anxiety spiral and it's poisoning our evenings together.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen
