Get off the internet.

Memes aside, yeah, get off the internet, do something that makes you feel good. Learn or get better at something you like. I promise the world is gonna be there when you come back, and it's not all bad as the "news" or social media like to portray.

This one makes me feel kinda silly, like part of me wants to scream obviously but then i realize that is exactly what I don't do. I'll try to take a break tomorrow and try to not look at Lemmy like the internet addict that I am (well maybe just my subscribed communities here and there, lol)
