Has technology caused more stressful life?

I’m retired! To me, the beauty of retirement is finally being able to jump off the hamster wheel and lead a more tranquil life.

However, I now spend an inordinate amount of time on my computer or phone—which I HATE! Time wasted processing dozens of junky emails, phone menu rabbit holes, being put on hold, keeping track of online accounts & passwords, dealing with spam, troubleshooting, calling tech support. Etc. Etc. Etc. It is simply too much!!!

It makes me feel like I’m back in the office but not getting paid. I feel so stressed out! Is there an escape from this madness?
