1st an elaboration on ur screen time- what apps do u use the most? think of why.
2nd then find substitutions for them. for example ive replaced phone time with laptop time for when im at home
ive replaced phone when outside and bored or in transit with reading a book or observeing the world around me.
interrogate why you spend so my time on your phone; and what else you could be doing.
remeber we all go thru peaks and troughs.... stay strong queen.

i have been on a journey to untangle my tasks from my iPhone.
i'd be out in the world someplace, pull out my phone for something as menial as checking the time, or as well intentioned as capturing the moment in a pic, and immediately get sucked into texts and instagram™️ and all the virtual things happening in this tiny lil demon light box.
the goal: pull my phone out of my bag ONLY for phone things. that's texting, calling, and apps that can't be replaced
the solutions so far:
🕰️ i started with a watch (shoutout Casio) and i wear it every day. once I broke the habit of checking my phone for the time, I felt legitimately freed from something Major
📷 I bought a small digital camera to leave in my bag. the pics look better and I don’t get distracted by the virtual world when I'm trying to capture something in the now
📚 I bought a kindle. It fits in my jacket pocket (literally) and gives me something to do when I'm on the train or waiting for an appointment that isn't scrolling
I just realized so much of the time I spent on my phone was not intentional. It was a thing I was doing in between Other intentional moments. my screen time is still several hours a day (don’t get me wrong) but I think my brain has healed at least 3%.
welcoming other ideas as well💡

For example, if you play games(crosswords?) on your phone u could buy a cheap crossword book. Also imo not all screens are bad- like i'm assuming u are using a screen to access pi.fyi. maybe think of them like that; watching a peice of art(film/tv) done thru screen?screens can be an access to the beauty of the world so dwindle ur use to that and not doomscrolling. maybe go a bit more analog try dvds cds, perhaps interacting differently with tech is ur breakthrough. moreso, books thinking and going on walks and ANY sport (i reccomend badminton(not tennis)) cycling and going to the library. and trust it will all come to together, soon.

The phone is my biggest enemy.. and time. But if I can push thru the initial discomfort of doing any activity not related to my phone.. I think the edge subsides and time slows down. I experience That most often when I try to get back into reading. all I can offer is to cast ur phone aside if u haven’t already, even if it’s just for an hour or two in ur room while u try Out ur hobbies elsewhere. best of luck <3

seriously, what a beautiful thing. i just emerged from one, oh a warm fountain of clean water. it's a real luxury. and a nice oil or lotion and a facial moisturiser. clean pyjamas. what a rejuvenating and lovely thing.

trust- this will be the timeless trend tradiition for millenium to come. the ballerinas tennis- the circumfrence of agility and grace and galloping badminton is this. tennis is for the weak-minded who must laze in the simulacra of grass and hitthings really hard but badminton lives in the sports hall among squash and gymnastics and karate. aswell, easy to pick up and play. importanttly, it is a very fashionable sport. you cna roam around with your racket bag and everyone encountered will know ur slay.
