I cant even keep up: The long-term harms of tech overload at work-and how to avoid them

Email, Teams, Slack, Zoom, texts, DMs the nonstop stimuli from our many screens can fry our brains and tank our work. Right now, I have 628 unread emails in my work inbox. Thats in addition to seven unread Signal messages, a few unopened Telegrams, dozens of texts coming in (both personal and professional), and a whole separate Google work suite to contend with for another professional project, with an impossible number of comments appearing daily within the documents therein.
