What does a true disconnect and unplug feel like? What’s the reward? I still find myself checking my phone one last time after unplugging.

It feels like floating. Like diving into my favorite inner worlds and letting my favorite music carry me across the waves of sound. I lose tension where I didn't know I had it. But it also feels like my mind carries me to places I don't want; places that are dark and scary and lonely, and I get buried beneath the treacherous waves of my emotions. So I take it in short bursts, and let the stories I read keep the darkness at bay.
