Potential cues/triggers: Using the phone for its non intended use. 

Remedy: Shifting focus away through actions (replacements) and change of environment.

Reflections: Day 1.  A game of cat and mouse with old habits.  Today I have won, and tomorrow I fight again.  

[90 Detox Challenge]

  >Other forms of "escapism and dependency": Internet surfing and porn (note: these two will be tracked during the 90 detox challenge as well)
