I feel like I'm loosing so much time of my life while watching others on social media. I'm not really that interested in what others are doing but still I can not stop watching reels, ig posts, random ytb videos, etc. It's stupid and sad. Thank you for this video. I already had times in my life when I almost didn't use my phone so I believe I can get there again.

As a person with ADHD, I have what I call my "distraction journal" which is exactly how you use a pen and paper by your side :) I use it for songs that get stuck in my head, sudden tasks I just remembered, all of my "I wonder ___?" stuff that pops up. It's a great way to acknowledge the thoughts and set them aside without feeling bad about it or anxious.

I deleted it as well, but I found that I will just switch to Instagram reels. Before that, I didn't open Instagram at all most days, but now I spend hours on the app every day. I also deleted the Instagram app from my phone for a while, but I actually switched to KZfaq Shorts. And because with every switch the content became worse and worse (or at least what the algorithm shows me), I also didn't just lose time by scrolling, but I also got angry/in a bad mood because Reels and especially Shorts will just randomly throw in crazy, misogynistic, far-right videos, where I get sucked into infuriating discussions in the comments. But I don't want to delete KZfaq as well because there are also a lot of very good videos I want to watch/listen to, some podcasts etc. Still trying to figure it all out.

Mine must have been over 11 hours. I started listening to YT videos, audiobooks, podcasts as a way to get myself to do things like dishes but now it's basically non stop distraction whenever I feel some sort of resistance or negative emotion - immediately squish it with technological dopamine... Like I actually feel withdrawal for a few seconds if my phone dies while I'm on a KZfaq binge :( I'm still productive and "successful" at uni but it takes an increasing amount of adrenaline to get stuff done 10 minutes before the deadline

I decided to make 30 days social media detox and deleted TikTok, Instagram, Twitter, FB. Left only KZfaq on my phone to watch self development videos. Today is day 4 and I feel I become main character in my life. And to be honest I'm not losing a thing without social media. Can't wait to see my huge progress in life after 30 days. P.s. I'm not compering myself with anyone and I feel calm, less stressed and self confidence.

same. The worst screen time of mine was 10 hours 7 mins. My average amount is 5-7 hours And I personally think that as a teenager and a student, it's affecting me a lot for my studies and other activities. I feel like I should focus on more on studies and stuff rather then spending most of my time scrolling. But I honestly don't know how to. I've tried so many apps that would help you limit your sreentime but it just didn't work and I also want to reduce my screentime down to 3 hours. I've been trying but it doesn't work so now I'm thinking that deleting those apps that I'm addicted to the most is my only option. ( which is Roblox, KZfaq and an app called addicted. ). So yeah. Wish me luck and pls give me some tips

A trick I used to reduce time spent on my phone and even the anxiety that turns up in the process is turning my phone off completely. At first it seems scary, but it's just an unfounded fear of missing out. It goes away very quickly though and even when you pick your phone up habitually it's way easier to just go "yeah, it's not working" and put it back down without any notifications popping up etc.

I vividly remember my procrastination getting worse as I justified the amount of time I spent “de-stressing” on Instagram watching reels and engaging with friends. I’m not perfect , but I’ve definitely developed more of a healthy relationship with my schoolwork as a premed and with my phone usage . Thanks for helping me much more with a video like this !

To make the apple screen time app limits more effective you can set a passcode that you have to enter to dismiss it. You can set a random one then write it down in your notes or a piece of paper which adds that extra step that allows you to think before continuing. It works like the longer passcode to unlock your phone or the rubber band in a way.

Im a little sceptical. Because being on your phone is easy. I do get annoyed that I have school aps on my phone. Like that I have to be on 24/7. I have more of a problem with that then other phone usage. I still feel like that is kind of a choice on how to spend your free time. Not every hour of the day needs to be productive. Life is stressful so sometimes you do not have the energy to do anything else then to watch videos on interesting topics. However I do pick the videos I want to watch on youtube. I do not use the reel function and on instagram I only look at stories or post my own. I just dont care about others peoples lives. I do like to hear other peoples analysis or opinions and ideas. I find that refreshing.

Great tips! Another one that might come in handy for some people: you can change the settings of your iphone to easily switch from colour to black and white (for me it's when I quickly press the off button three times in a row). The colours of all the different apps make them seem more interesting so if you put your phone in black and white you're less tempted to notice them and open them. Also scrolling through Social media is way less interesing when everything is in black and white.

I was trying so bad to find a video that I’d be like “it’s def worth the “effort” to keep using social media”. turns out it wasn’t. I kept scrolling for abt an hour and felt like shit! while doing it and afterwards as well. anyone out there who’s considering doing this, give it a shot! it could be one day, two days, whatever, JUST DO IT. tip: be sure to include new tasks or hobbies. I added reading, playing the guitar, journaling, and walked outside to get my 10.000 steps in :)) good luck

i actually find the screen time limits i've put on my phone by apple as very helpful. to me, it's just a form of checking your intention and being mindful. i also almost never hit "ignore for the rest of today" and instead opt for "remind me in 15 minutes". i also set automatic timers so that my phone goes into "sleep mode" between like 10pm and 8am and then also "work mode" from like 8 am to 3pm. it helps. sometimes i will choose to spend times on social media apps still, but im always consciously making that choice and not just doing it just because im not paying attention to the time. my problem is that my screen time isnt very accurate because i like to have my laptop or something on for a large portion of the day doing something like streaming music but it'll still count towards my screen time. it says my screen time today is on track to be 24 hours... yeah i can promise you that's not accurate at all lmao. i also like to leave my phone in my room while i go to other parts of the house to hang out with family or pets or whatever. the text messages can wait a couple hours!

I also used to hit the dismiss button and type in a password when I reached the time limit in an app, but a few months ago I had my sister set a password for me so that when the app closes I can’t reopen it. It has worked well so far.

This video was SO helpful, thank you! I'm not sure why it would work on me, but I can see that virtual tree being effective. Forest should sponsor you because it's the first I've heard of that app! I also love the idea about having paper next to you for a brain dump.... right now I tend to make a list on the notes app on my phone... which you can imagine doesn't work well for this problem 😂

What I do is I put my phone in my case backwards, so I can’t touch my phone screen without taking it out and putting it into the case again and that’s jsut annoying Highly recommend ❤

My takeaways - - Don't break flow state from the things you want to be doing, don't get into a 'bad' flow state❤(my favourite tip from the video) - write down the list of tasks you want be doing on the phone - Note time you start using your phone, set limit Thankyou, loved the idea of flow state!🙌

Honestly there are so many creative/ more enjoyable things that I could be doing instead of spending time on my phone. ALSO I totally relate about going on your phone before bed and then being like AHHH ITS 4AM WHAT HAPPENED. Low-key my phone has been ruining my sleep schedule and seriously affecting my mental health 😭 it’s like a catch 22 situation though because in today’s day and age, it’s incredibly difficult to live without using phones and social media’s somewhat, especially if your business is online. These tips were great though, I think my worst ever daily screen time was like 13 hours?? I was like IM NOT EVEN AWAKE FOR THAT MANY HOURS lmao

On samsung you can only prelong usage of an app by 10 or 15 minutes. After that time you will have to go into the settings, find them and change how long you can use this app per Day generally. Not Just for a today. It is better thought out than in apple

I only have Twitter (I follow one account and check it for like 2 minutes a day for any upcoming world tours lol) and KZfaq. Oh my goodness that's where I have the addiction! I'm finding ways to reduce. But the days I have over 8 hours is me listening to scary stories (it's like listening to audiobooks, so does that count?) But I have stopped watching content that was not beneficial (for me rude language and such.) I'm trying to only watch things that bring something good for myself. I used to be so into my writing, and my KZfaq addiction affected my creativity and motivation... I was so inspired and happy then, so I'm working on "devolving" from KZfaq lol
