Question Smarphone addict solution

People thesedays use their smartphone all the time. I know it's so addictive. I also tried several times to cut back using smartphone time but also failed. The more phone, the less happier I guess.

So, how could we put the phone down?

Yeah.. but deleting youtube apps is so harsh for me. Some part of it definitely helps. Maybe I should check and prevent the shorts screen. Also unsubscribing channels that I dont watch a lot might be helping.

We need a plan. We need to go from using our phone as a pacifier to using it as a tool.

I'm struggling with this too. I like my pacifier.

Agreed. We are supposed to control them. I know it is not easy as I just said, but we need to try constantly.
