I appreciate your honesty and clear thinking about what you are feeling and experiencing. It is hard sometimes for me to get right to it in words, perhaps that is part of the role photography plays in my life. Your insights are spot on, and you are not alone

I so enjoyed this, as I quit social media six months ago and I'm also looking at getting rid of my smartphone. Thank you for writing so honestly about the problems we've created for ourselves.

Heather! So good to hear from you. Thanks for reading my musings. I think cutting ourselves from the incredible distraction is important, yet I often find myself crawling back to it. Hope you are doing well.

I would shell out mad stacks for a zine of photos shot on your Nokia brick phone.

I love to hear you are dealing with your mental health. It's not easy work. Good on you for taking that journey!!
