I guess this is only if you have an iPhone because I don’t know if android has it. But do not disturb will allow you to still receive the text, but not the notification. I could be wrong, but I think you can set so that it alerts your friends that you are on do not disturb. I think this could give the flexibility of responding if you are in the space to, but having the freedom to not feel you need to respond right away.

idk about other phones but if u have an iphone they have all kinds you can turn on and just make sure it’s set to show people you’re on dnd. then if they go to text you they’ll see you’re working/taking personal time/etc. i have the one set up for work hours, one for therapy and yoga, sleep, i also put them on when i am doing my something else (painting, cooking, movie) and don’t want to be bothered. IMO you don’t really have to announce it and it also may not go over well if you tell people their texts drive you crazy — it might just be better left unsaid. (unless you’re getting spammed with like ten calls in a row then you probably should) i think eventually they’ll just adjust to you not being reachable 24/7. (just don’t ghost people for a bunch of days if they ask you an important question lol) i used to feel obliged to respond to everything ASAP and i’m still mostly a “good texter” but i don’t feel the need to interrupt things to respond to texts or text abt something non-time sensitive if i’m not in a mood to (outside my mom lol, i always answer her the same day) and i think most people in my life understand that bc i just am not reachable 24/7 and have that boundary. i don’t know if you can just stop people texting you a lot but i think if you reshape your response time they will have to adjust/come to terms with that

If I get a bunch of texts right away in the morning my lizard brain will be like, “is everyone literally suffocating me right now?” I’ve found it helpful to use the Focus settings on the iphone to show my friends that I’m in hermit mode, that way I won’t see the notification right away and they don’t feel ignored. Then later in the day I can reply when I am in the right spirit and wanting to connect. I also just straight up tell friends that I don’t really do groupchats because they stress me out and they can take that or leave it 🐸 tldr: set digital boundaries and take advantage of windows of energy 🪟⚡️

These are my favorite food (only slight hyperbole). I recommend, in no order: -Kettle brand -Kettle brand air fried -7/11 -Lay's Kettle Cooked These chips are so strong that they will burn your tongue. They are chemical perfection that make the systems in my body dance. They are so rock and roll. No matter what size the bag, I will probably finish the bag. I always eat the folded ones first, and then move to the unfolded ones.

If you’re within an hour walk from home, you should just walk home. I understand taking public transit or an Uber there to be on time, but you’re not rushing to get home. Thus, walk.
