Doomscroll Fatigue

[ SLANG ][ EMOTION ][ NOUN ]

FORCE: Attention EconomyUNIVERSE: Feed BehaviorCLUSTER: Consumption Patterns

The specific, heavy tiredness that follows a long doomscrolling session — distinct from general burnout, it's the flat, drained feeling from absorbing bad news on a loop.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

"I couldn't focus on anything at work today, straight up doomscroll fatigue from last night."

LORE & ORIGIN

Split off from the broader 'doomscrolling' vocabulary around 2024 as people started distinguishing the act itself from its specific physical and emotional aftermath.
