you'll definitely have to bug the people at the phone store to help you set it up and there's a good chance they won't know how to do it but my dad has some tiny phone that gets calls and texts from his number so he can take that instead of his iphone, i just got two numbers (one for my iphone and one for my flip) but have some setting that all calls to my number will forward to my flip phone when I'm out. the extra sim for my flip phone was way cheaper than my iphone sim so it wasn't too bad. really the only other option i can think up is to just swap your sim card between both phones as you need it!

this won’t work if your iphone has a built in sim card that you can’t extract, obviously

Company setup to help streamline the process of getting and setting up dumb phones on current cell services. Link to their phone store. They have a couple flip phone recs.

At the start of the new year i vegan using an iPhone 5s as a ‘dumbphone‘ in place of my normal iPhone 15. dumb phone life is so much more worth living to me. no doomscrolling to be don. i was sleeping better and more present in daily life. unfortunately the service on the 5s was not reliable enough (boooo american companies 4 shutting down 3g towers) phone for me to drive across the country with but i will be switching my sim card back to it ASAP. (it’s just an annoying process as my 15 has an esim and I gotta go to the store and all that.) attaching a mirror selfie w my benjamin franklin case in all its glory:

hate your friends? feel like you picked the wrong life path? tempted to break up with your partner? breaking out? play tetris.
Tetris is known to override your brain or something and therefore it's the perfect way to cope with any and all issues!

I used to try so hard to reinvent myself and it drove me absolutely crazy trying to be something that I wasn't. Just be open to new experiences and people and push yourself out of your comfort zone a little after you leave. Both leaving the place that you've been comfortable in and gradating high school are big changes and they will already kickstart the process of finding yourself. If you're open to it, you'll absolutely find yourself even if you don't realize it in the moment. You've got this!
