I´m being overstimulated by the internet and modern society
I´m browsing the internet and I get too much information in my mind. Browsing youtube, browsing the misc, browsing news sites, ********, instagram and on goes the list. This leads to information overload, and can cloud the mind. Constant hits of dopamine like an addict.
I really don´t need any more info in my mind, I already know too much. Looking at more shallow info and knowing more won´t lead to more happiness. Happiness is about unknowing. It´s about breaking down beliefs, so the world can become a "mysterious" place again. Connect with the world and the moment, not with information, thoughts or feelings.
I think most people in modern society are overstimulated. Data everywhere around you, wherever you look. It can drive people insane
Sometime in the future, I wan´t to buy a rural farm property somewhere nice, and really focus on disconnecting from modern society.
It´s full of opinions, ideas, commercials, lost people, information......Information which stands in the way of simply being. Being in a gratefull consciouss state. Simple things such as the sun shining up on your body should be enough to be content. Modern society has raised the bar extremely high for triggers to make you content.
"If you want to become a priest, rabbi or theologian, then there´s a lot to learn. But if you want to figure out whats true, it´s a whole different proccess. The last thing you need is more knowledge."

Do some more passive boring stuff in your life like watching TV, or reading a book. Occupy your mind with scenes, not data that is designed to illicit a response (anger from reading outrage pron, dopamine from a 2 second meme). Something long form like reading fiction uses your brain to render scenes and follow along easy slow developing points.
Meditation is huge for fighting this. Instead of your brain constantly looking for a new meme insta or fb style, you are literally doing the opposite. Slowing your mind down til it trickles out nothing. Its like weight training for your brain.
Right now your brain is hungry like someone who drinks 2+ pops a day, and snacks on chips and sugar. You need a brain diet, srsly.

We crave more to look at. We crave more information and stimulation. So many of us are addicted. Just a reminder.
Boredom is not the enemy. In boredom you
"All beliefs, all concepts, all thoughts. They are all false, as in bullchit. If you are going for the truth, you´re taking none of them with you."
There is no freedom as long as this addiction is here. I´m a slave

"Truth is infinitely simple. Delusion is infinitely complex."
Don´t you get it? There will never be enough information for you, you will crave it into the second you die. You will never get enough!
There is no end in sight. You depend on it, because it´s an addiction you´re used to, not much differnt from the junkies at the local hangout. You will still be browsing ******** on your death bed, instead of simply being. Information/stimulation overload is what stands in the way of you "waking up". All information is false, as in bullchit. It´s all a mirage.
I posted a good video in the op. Set yourself free miscer

I don´t want to have a job where I get bombarded by information and opinions all day. At the end of the day, it´s all bullchit, and I think there are better paths to live a happy content life, free of addictions. On the other side lies some kind of freedom, at least thats what one can hope. I see a better future. A place where modern society and popular thought don´t run the show. Modern society is not the answer to being happy. Modern society runs most peoples livesMaybe try to learn some self control.
Not only modern society though, societies in the past as well.

Nuke your life!
The world seems like a terrible place, and in some way it is. But you don´t have to be connected to it. The modern world is not real, it´s just an illusion of the mind.
We can find comfort in hope of something else. Yes, there is more to life. More than what you can currently see.
Actual progess is never easy, it never is. You will die one day, and it will be like you never even existed. Connect with the moment and live a good life, before it´s too late. Don´t let it slip away, because it can end at any moment.

"It gets you out of the hole you spent your life digging yourself into, so you can finally START your life. You´re not even talking about doing a spiritual journey, we´re talking about UNdoing the unspiritual journey."
"This is about climbing out of our graves, and living our lives, and discovering who and what we are, and what we are a part of. And you can´t do that from the bottom of a hole."
"Nothing is hiden, only unseen"
Information overloading our minds prevents us from doing the most important progress. It prevents us from being and discovering the truth. The truth is not more information. The clock is ticking

Maybe you can´t truly win while being embedded with and identifying with society. No matter how successfull you become, you´re still in the same place. You still want more, like an addict. It´s never enough. You will be depressed and have worries just like everyone else, so how free are you really? As long as there is evil and bad, you will be worried and scared. Maybe it´s possible to be set free from this mind addiction consuming your entire life. A life of true freedom where you´re not afraid to die, and not afraid of how the world is developing around you.
No matter how much information you have, no matter how much you learn. It will all not matter in the end.
It´s all bullchit. It´s all distraction

Completely agreed OP. We were designed for a world without so much stimulation. It kills the soul. The hardest part is finding people who aren't plugged into the matrix. Our souls need deep companionship, but most people these days don't know how to provide that, or even that such a thing exists. No wonder we distract and medicate ourselves.

Go on a long fast OP and then just a bit of food will make you content.
Or isolate and meditate for a few days with zero external stimulus and then anything will seem engaging

This is why most people nowadays have "ADHD", anxiety, and depression; their minds are fractured and their attention is going to 10000 (useless) things
