Something Changed on My Bill

A single change on a bill can seem minor at first. It may not demand attention right away.

Over time, small differences begin to accumulate. Each unexplained change adds another point of uncertainty.

This page describes how attention cost grows faster than the dollar amount. The mind revisits the bill repeatedly.

Energy is spent wondering whether the change matters. Confusion compounds when clarity doesn’t arrive. The lack of explanation becomes its own source of strain.

This page does not explain why bills change. It does not describe systems or causes.

Its purpose is to reflect how repeated, unexplained changes can turn a brief moment of noticing into ongoing mental load, without interpretation or resolution.
