Sitting around in the dark on your computer isnt good for your mental health (and your eyes)

I liked sitting around in the dark in the past. I felt more comfortable that way. Though that causes eye strain, especially if you're staring at a monitor for hours. The more eye strain, the more anxious you get. The more anxious you get the more depressed you get. So eye strain is a contribution factor in mental health problems.

When you're working on your computer the room should be well lit. You should have a light behind, or above you. Even a dim light is okay just as long as there's a light source other than your screen. In my room I have a light behind my monitor and one behind me, a little bit above.

Generally, when you're looking at something bright like a computer screen at night it causes eye strain. I dont know how else to explain it. Even though for some reason I like to sit in the dark, I dont do it while I'm using my computer because it's not healthy when you learn about it. When you read what the experts have to say.

"Touching grass" is a good idea. Get off your computer, get off your phone a little bit during the day.
