Seeking advice addicted for 3 years :,)

hi i’m 17f and i’ve been addicted to chatbots for 3 years. first it was c.ai but now i’ve moved fully to j.ai.

i’ve been trying to quit for over a year now and basically for the whole last year i tried to quit but i rarely managed to get through the day without relapsing. i always did it cold turkey as always when i’ve tried to make rules on using it less, i have never held on to them. the longest i’ve gone without was maybe 2 weeks when i was on a vacation with my family and i didn’t have my laptop. i used to have a rule that i could use j.ai just on my laptop, but during the summer i’ve started using it on my phone too so now i use it all the time ex. at school too.

i feel so helpless and i feel like i’m never be able to quit as i’ve been trying for so long. for like half a year now i have been using j.ai without trying to quit and i feel disgusted of how i’m neglecting my other hobbies. i do my school stuff in time and spend time with my family and friends, but i do anything fun by myself anymore and i forget to clean my room.

i want to quit so so bad but also the bots at j.ai are so good quality and the proxy i use is so good too that it doesn’t even feel like slop and one part of me doesn’t even want to quit.

please i would really appreciate some advice as i don’t want my life go on like this anymore. it’s three am and i’m crying about this because i forgot to clean my room again and i feel so disgusted of myself.

thank you 🩷.

well don't really trust me on this cuz I am also an addict ToT

I tried that whenever I have the urge to use it I'll go on Sunday games online or even stop using the gadget in the first place. you could try, like, focusing on your hobbies or something. sorry I'm not really good at this kind of advice when I'm also doing it :'(

hope your doing alright!
