As far as I understand about addiction, I will only say this much: it is a habit that you cannot get rid of, nor does it let you focus on anything, no matter where you are. Whenever you are doing something, your attention is constantly focused on it, and you become so used to it that you don't even feel like getting up from that place or meeting anyone.100 out of 90 percent of the peoples are addicted to some kind of addiction because they don't think they are doing too much of it. I know that people who are addicted to something are not accepting it. They just say that they are using it because they enjoy using it. So if you use your mind along with your understanding, you will know that you are using it because you like it and when did you become addicted to it?So my understanding of it is that if something gets stuck in your mind and you think about it all the time and can't think of anything else, and you feel like doing the same thing over and over again, then you have become addicted to that thing.
we don't know when we start using something so much that it becomes not a use but an addiction. So, as I told you, I am also addicted, so I have also become addicted to my phone a lot. I have become quite accustomed to not looking at Instagram for a long time. Earlier, it wasn't like that. Earlier, I would open it and look at it every day and then close it. But for a few days, it has become so ingrained in me that whenever I sit down, I watch reels. I grab my phone watch reels and talked someone and suddenly grabbed cellphone and again watch reels
Even if I try to read some books , suddenly some notification pop up from above on my mobile screen, which makes me curious to watch reels and i quickly open Instagram reel section and start watching reels and now with the time i spend hours on it. I understand that this is wrong, but I am not able to fight this addiction right now.
right now I don't really feel like I need anyone's help because I've seen so many people who are more addicted to their phones than me because my friends circle are much bigger these days so I see that my friends keep sending me videos all day so that means they use their phones more than me so I don't think I need any help right now and just like I said before I understand what is wrong for me and what is right for me so I will stop it myself because I have to reduce my screen time and focus on other things I know very well because I tried so hard to look after myself but now I understand that I need to be strict with myself spending so much time on my phone is absolutely not good for my eyesight. I get quite excited about everything new that I find and then I start spending a lot of time on it, but it only lasts a few days. My nature is such that I get bored with things quickly. I can't like anything for long, nor can I stick with it for long.At the end of the day my only answer is i love myself first and keep away from anything that hurts me.
