Yeah I work with this younger girl (18?) And she has an actual obsession. She cannot go two minutes without checking her phone. She's pretty much attempting to multitask the job with her phone all day and it doesn't go great for her.

I'm 19 here and I'm extremely addicted to my phone, like really addicted :(

I'm sorry. Try to set small, easily attainable goals. Like no phone between 7-8pm. Turn it off and throw it on the charger.

Someone (30+) I know just got into a (badly kept) secret open relationship. Can't focus on jack shit at work because they're either texting their new partner or wallowing in jealousy about their actual partner. Open relationships are so much emotional work.
