| RE: How to break free of phone addiction | 8 Relevance | 2 months ago | Maya Miller | Addiction | |
| Breaking a phone addiction is not easy. It can actually be very difficult. I’ve had days when I was on my phone for 8+ hours so I should know. It’s sometimes easy to forget that there’s a life outside our phones, computers or screens. There’s a real world with beautiful people and nature to explore. Technology has gotten better at drawing us in - I’m talking about the algorithms at Youtube, Facebook, Instagram, Tiktok that know what we like and they constantly hit us with more of that. It’s not a case of do this and you’ll be “cured” of phone addiction. Some ... | |||||
| RE: Artificial Sweetners | 6 Relevance | 4 years ago | Mary K | Health & Fitness | |
| I had a serious addiction to diet sodas for more than 15 years. My mood (and weight) fluctuated a lot during that time. I finally gave it up and I am so much better for it. Even my teeth are better because the carbonation is not eroding my teeth. I don't sweeten much other than honey or brown sugar in foods like oatmeal. My taste buds definitely changed to being more sensitive to sugars, but it took some time. No there are somethings I eat like in restaurants or processed foods and all I taste is the super sweetness. It was an addiction, and it did tak ... | |||||

| @kenny My boyfriend said he feels I’m spending way too much time with my phone and way too little with him and that was the straw that broke my back so to say. It was horrible to realize he was right! I was spending hours upon hours on my phone! I’ve since started spending time with him and always ask him if I’m doing better at this. He’s very supportive about this “addiction” of mine and I’m lucky to have him backing me up 🙂 | |||||

| RE: Positive Thinking | 3 Relevance | 2 years ago | Zena Love | Life | |
| Positivity is a powerful emotion that can transform your life. It's not just a fleeting feeling of happiness, but a mindset that can help you overcome obstacles and achieve your goals. Instead of succumbing to negativity, let's become addicted to positive thinking. This healthy addiction can change the way we view ourselves and the world around us. The first step towards becoming addicted to positivity is acknowledging negative thoughts when they arise. We all have them, but it's important not to dwell on them or allow them to consume us. Instead, focus on ... | |||||
| Pain Relief For Nerve Damage | 3 Relevance | 3 years ago | austinannie | Health Concerns | |
| ... regularly or using elastic stockings may also help leg pain. A problem with pain medication is it actually can increase pain overtime. Taking them can lower your tolerance to pain, causing what use to be tolerable to become intolerable. Most, if not all, can lead to damage to other organs as well. Liver and Kidneys being the most common. Not to mention the added side effects of physical addiction--which will also increase pain. Unfortunately once nerves are damaged, at least for now, they can not be repaired. And you are right, the pain is intense. I ... | |||||

| The more you are aware of the alternatives and preparation for quitting, it will be easier to quit smoking. Control your cravings and join the millions of people who have kicked out the habit of smoking. Smoking tobacco is both a psychological habit and physical addiction. The nicotine from the cigarettes offers addictive and temporary high. Elliciting that regular fix of nicotine will make the body experience physical withdrawal cravings and symptoms.

| If I might barge in here 🙂 and add a few suggestions that have worked for me. I’ve deleted ALL of my social media apps and games that we’re distracting me. ALL of them! No exceptions! This might seem extremely difficult for some people but I needed to do it otherwise it wouldn’t work. I did this some months back and never looked back. I’m using my phone for talking and messaging. That’s it. When there’s a break at work or some free time I will talk with people, read something, listen to an audiobook, go on a run and so on. It’s like when you’re trying to quit sugar but your house is filled with sugary treats. It’s super difficult to stick to it so sometimes you need to just go gung-ho on it and eliminate all sugar from the house so it’s easier for you to stick to it and not be tempted by foods and drinks from your house. It’s the same with the apps and games on the phone. Get rid of them or they’ll be a distraction. | |||||

| @maya-miller Going from 8 hours to just 1 is insanely good! Congratulations to you, Maya! And yes your advice on not using your phone both in the morning and after 8 PM makes things easier as you know you won’t be using it during those times; it’s something clear in your mind and probably makes things easier. Will try it. | |||||
| RE: How to break free of phone addiction | 3 Relevance | 2 months ago | Maya Miller | Addiction | |
| @kenny Well, for starters there’s absolutely no phone in the morning. I don’t even pick it up until lunch time when I check it for 10-15 minutes. I have a classic alarm clock that wakes me up. Also no phone after 8 PM. I set it on silent. If something really urgent happens (and it almost never does) and my family or friends need to get a hold of me they know to call my husband. So I’m basically “using” my phone between 12 and 8 PM and I’m browsing, scrolling or playing games for 1 hour tops. | |||||
