Get Rid of Cell Phone Addiction, How Long Does It Take?

Due to Corona and being at home all the time, I became extremely addicted to cell phones and by that I mean a real addiction…

Now I don't know how I can best get rid of it, e.g. My first plan was simply to switch everything off completely, but I need the laptop for homeschooling and I don't want to lose WhatsApp contact with my friends.

Hence my question: cold or slow withdrawal?

And these two things would take us a long time (I want to get "clean" as soon as possible.

Then limit your needs to an hour a day

Step by step: ideally half an hour less every day. But enforce that too!

Slow withdrawal

At times I hung on Instagram for hours every day and then I noticed that the time was just thrown away there.

I then turned off the notification and moved the app to a folder.

Since then, I've only opened the app when my colleagues / friends asked me about it.

Out of sight, out of mind!

And maybe you can talk to your friends on the phone.
Is better than writing for hours!

The tip worked really damn well!
