I had to get an app that blocks Instagram in very specific ways, like allows me into friend dms but ejects me from reels and comment sections, but holy shit. I havent watched a single reel in I think a bit over a week. and I'm finally starting to see change only now...
today was the best day I've had in a long time - nothing happened that was great, but I FELT great. I finally felt bored enough with entertainment to do chores by choice and not self-force. I know I'll still have ups and down but the amount of mental energy I've got rn in comparison is staggering. even though I still try to reach for it constantly . I don't know if I'll keep this up forever but I think my relationship with my phone is changed completely
