It’s been nearly a week. I saw a thoughtful post by someone I respect deeply, one of my most favorite blogs on here about why she was quitting Tumblr, and I got suddenly scared concerned that my addiction to this platform has become stronger than I could manage. Withdrawing for a week made me a little more confident that I can manage it after all. 

For now, I am back. I loved the extra time I’ve got, but I missed the human connection. 

I will do these withdrawals again, to be sure, but perhaps more controlled and not as abruptly.
