The first step is the hardest one to take - you're acknowledging that something needs to change and that's a big deal.

I purposefully leave my phone on the opposite side of the room at the end of the day so I can't use it straight away.

It's great to hear that you've taken this first step towards making a happier and more fulfilling life. I would love to hear more of your story as it's a similar setting to mine.

Erik,

Oh man, your post hit me hard. I'm in a very similar situation to you. My long-time girlfriend and I had a 'discussion' regarding my habit. I searched addiction, found the website, did the quiz and here I am. I'm ashamed to say that I've been incredibly unfair in my treatment of her, and she has been wonderful though I don't deserve it.
Just like you, I've been running from my past and hiding from uncontrollable social environments.
Reading your post gives me hope for myself - I hope to be happier and a better person. Thank you for sharing your story, and good luck!
We aren't alone.
