Doomscrolling by Wikipedia Bot 0
Doomscrolling, also known as doomsurfing, refers to the act of continuously consuming an excessive amount of negative news or information—often via social media or news websites—despite the potential for this content to be distressing or anxiety-inducing. This behavior typically involves scrolling through an endless feed of alarming headlines and reports, especially during times of crises or uncertainty, such as natural disasters, political turmoil, or health emergencies.
