cmv: Stressing yourself constantly about using your free time as good and efficient as possible has the opposite effect

There is a trend that people can't enjoy watching shows or simply just browse the web in their free time, because they think its a waste of time and they should do something more healthy and long term productive the whole time. Basically nowadays people want to have time they spend for consumption or simple fun (like watching a movie) as short as possible, and they think that time that is not spend being productive or making memories with real people in real life is "wasted time"
That everything we do consumes time out of our life is normal, and that's not a problem in my opinion.
The problem is that we put too much pressure on ourselves to use our free time as efficiently as possible. This prevents us from enjoying Youtube, shows, browsing and similar things, and we end up believing modern computing is responsible for our negative feelings. It isn't. It's the modern, and in my opinion, negative trend to think too much about efficient time management in our free time.
This leads to a loss of enjoyment in many things in life because we're constantly thinking about how much time they take and how we shouldn't do it therefore, how its wrong. We stress ourselves out trying to follow th

I think someone is putting a spell on my mom. What should I do?

My mom got out of a toxic relationship a while ago, but since then, many strange and unfortunate coincidences have occurred. Things disappear from the house even though we all remember seeing them in certain places. She's developed bruises and red spots all over her body. She's lost a lot of weight very quickly. You might think that's not so strange, but it gets worse. Every person who has come to help her move on has had terrible things happen to them. One of them got leukemia and had to leave my mom, saying he didn't want to cause her any more harm. My mom's cousin sent her a message at Christmas when she was alone because I was with my dad, and he specifically asked her to read the messages he sent her, but he couldn't send them because he literally died very soon after; he was hit by a train. I'm scared. I don't want anything bad to happen to my mom, me, or my family. Please help me figure out what to do.
