RainbowGirl 0 Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 (edited) So, I have decided to quit social media and mindless browsing for as long as it takes. I decided last evening. Today feels different. I did not pick up my phone the first thing in the morning. Instead, I worked out, took a shower, ate and got ready to go to the library. I had always known that this was an issue for me; it provided a sense of escapism and filled a void I was too afraid to fill. I would spend hours and days in my room on my screen. I did this was because I was scared. Scared to go out and make new friends, get out of my comfort zone, confront the problems in my life. Today is my first day, and I could not be prouder of myself for taking this step. I feel excited to see where I go from here.

Damiano 199 Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 The first step is very hard. Congrats. As a tip, make it hard/impossible for your bad habits to happen. I recommend a book "Atomic Habits" has all the necessary stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P42 0 Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 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.
