Why ‘bed rotting’ is the newest hot self-care trend for lazy Gen Zers

[havoc00]

As experts and introverts continue to tout the benefits of self-care, “bed rotting” has become one of the most popular forms of recouping.

With nearly 305 million views on TikTok, “rotting” away in bed seems to be one of Generation Z’s preferred methods for self-care.

While it may sound extreme — and gross — “bed rotting” just refers to lying in bed for long periods of time.

It doesn’t matter what you do while you’re in bed or why you’re there, as long as you’re cuddled up in bed beyond bedtime.

Some people are “bed rotting” while binge-watching Netflix, stuffing their faces with sugary snacks or simply staring at the ceiling, while others are falling a bit more into the “clean girl” aesthetic by doing face masks, sleeping on silk pillowcases and meditating in bed.

Fans claim “bed rotting” can be a great way to reclaim both physical and mental health whether people are recovering from a cold, a busy week or a nasty hangover.

While people have laid around and stayed in bed for long periods of time for years, many Gen Zers online note that “bed rotting” has to be intentional and come with no guilt or “Sunday Scaries” to really count and be regenerative.

As a millenial I totally love sh*tting on Zoomers for wanting to stay home all day and don't even want to drive cars

Who wouldn't just want to lay in bed all day long, not pay any bills, and just live off the government?

Why do they think they invented laying in bed all day when they feel depressed or are recovering from a hangover?

Because they made it a TikTok trend?

This has been a thing as long as there has been beds.

The silver lining of being a member of a horrible generation (like being a Millennitard) is knowing that the next generation will somehow be even worse. Zoomtrash have set the bar incredibly low, but I'm sure the subsequent generation will somehow limbo their way under. The descent of civilization continues apace.

Born in 98 here so technically a “gen z” but I don’t associate myself with them. Anyone born after 2000 is a complete tard

Agreed. When I rot it's on a couch, not in a bed.
