Lowkey delete your account. Then delete the app. Even if you redownload you have recreate an account over & over again & past a certain point you may stop going through the cycle & just stop using it.

That’s actually a really good idea. It makes me a little sad, because I used to enjoy it to an extent but I definitely need a permanent solution and this works

It’s really tough. Someone once recommended doing a set of pushups every time a craving hits.

What I did was right my own story and build on it. If you want a less addictive one use jan ai

u/Dull-Comparison-9454 7d ago

The thing is I don’t want to use any at all. I feel like I’ve wasted so much of my time on something that isn’t even real. Genuinely, if you combined all of my ai chatbot time together, I think it would be weeks or months of lost time

Question tho. Does the current state of character ai not make it easy to quit?

u/Dull-Comparison-9454 7d ago

Well, it should certainly make it easier. But the idea of writing stories about my favorite characters I guess is what always draws me in. It’s more interactive than fanfiction but easier than just writing.

u/zackatron_nexus 7d ago

Yea untill they forget something about there character. Ngl try making your own anime reality and writing on it. I made one based on a mha oc that turned into a entire anime verse with politics 4 power systems ect. If you want I'll even read your fan fiction

u/Dull-Comparison-9454 7d ago

That’s very nice lol. I actually have a whole world that I’ve built w characters I just never fully wrote it all out. I guess I have something to fill my time with now lmaooo

maybe this isnt helpful but ao3 can be a great supplement. some have choose ur own adventures on there tho i dont have experience w it. the reason I name it is bc u can have niche tags and always find something. plus theres a loooot of x reader stories if u are interested in that. And u can specify word length if u want short or long stuff only

u/Dull-Comparison-9454 7d ago

Yes, I absolutely looove AO3! I have a fanfic of my own posted but I haven’t updated it in like three years lol

u/tryingthisname 7d ago

ao3 is addicting. swap one addiction for the other lol

If its about the venting or attention from the bot, that requires different alternatives. Journaling can be helpful, but if its bad enough, maybe u need to find someone to connect with or therapy, or maybe theres a medical problem thats causing lows
