"The Cost of Comfort: How Technology is Slowly Destroying Me"

I feel completely trapped by the comforts and necessities of modern life, as if they have become chains I cannot break free from. I can't live without air conditioning, without a fridge to keep things cold, without a TV to distract me, or without my phone constantly in my hand. My entire existence feels locked inside these things, and in the unbearable heat of summer, I am completely helpless—I cannot step outside because the scorching temperature makes it impossible. Everywhere I turn, the air is suffocating, the sun merciless; it’s as if the whole world is on fire and I have no escape except the four walls of my room, cooled artificially by the AC. I can’t even drink normal water anymore; it has to be ice-cold, or I feel restless and dissatisfied. I know this is ruining my health, slowly making my body weaker, my mind lazier, and my spirit duller. These comforts, meant to make life easier, are actually shortening my life, trapping me in a cycle of dependency and weakness. Deep down, I feel that if this goes on, I won’t last long in this world—I’m losing touch with the strength to live without these things, and it frightens me to think that this life I’m leading is not really living at all.
