I’m addicted and I need help.. no judgement

I’m honestly feeling so lazy lately and addicted to my phone and I don’t even do anything on it. It’s effected me wanting to do my wifely duties !! Or even go outside. I feel like this is getting serious but need some advice. This isn’t a joke either . Anyone had to limit themselves and can help me on where to start?

It can be a true addiction. There are screen rehab facilities. Delete the apps from your phone that you gravitate toward and that suck your time (like this one).

I have days like that too. This morning I wanted so bad just to lay down on the couch and watch tv and use my phone. But before I did that, I forced myself to astleast sweep and mop the house and do wash a load of clothes. Then I feel like it’s a reward when I get to sit down and use my phone. The clothes are currently in the washer and need to be moved to the dryer. Even though is less than 15 feet away and will take less than a minute, it’s hard lol. Just remember that you are stronger than that

I was like that as well. I’ve since deleted Facebook and Instagram and only have this and Snapchat. It’s certainly help to not be on my phone so much. I’ve also learnt to put it away when my partner home so we can spend quality time together, but when his at work I definitely find myself on here more.Best thing to do it delete a few things you find you just waste time on and try to find a distraction! I also took up 5D gem pictures as its fun and crafty and takes up a heap of time lol.Good luck!

Deep clean the house. Put music on and forget where you put your phone. Enjoy you time. Go outside without your phone and garden or something. Walk. Leave your phone at home. I get addicted to my phone and annoyed with it. Once a yr I will see how long I can go without getting on apps. Make your phone back into a dumb phone!

When I find myself getting on my phone more than usual, I will get up and start doing other things. I will do the dishes, clean the bathroom, organize my sons toys, I will think of what to make for dinner and get it prepped, I’ll sweep the floor, etc. Now some of those things that I have listed usually don’t necessarily need done, but it keeps me busy for a good 20 minutes. I’ll also find things to do like tint my eyebrows, Whiten my teeth, take a bath, paint my nails, Organize the closet’s. I know some of that may sound boring, but it also helps with keeping your house very organized and spotless LOL so it’s a win-win. I’ve been doing this for a good minute and sometimes I can’t even find what to do because I have my house so spotless but it does keep me occupied. I’m a SAHM lol Also, finding a good TV series to watch helps me stay off my phone. I know I’m still watching TV, but I do get up periodically through it I don’t just sit down and watch it. I mean I have a son so I’m definitely busy.
