Are we losing out because of doom scrolling?

Britain is spending 11 days a year (43 minutes a day) doomscrolling, as new research highlights the growing emotional toll of constant digital consumption.

Where upsetting news was once largely confined to TV bulletins and newspapers, social media has created a constant 24/7 cycle – often appearing during time intended for relaxation or distraction.

The research, commissioned by Jumble & Co, the new wellbeing journaling brand from Collins Debden, found the impact of doomscrolling is significantly more pronounced among women.
