Additionally, practicing self-love and self-care can greatly aid in the recovery process. Engaging in activities that promote physical, emotional, and mental health, such as yoga and meditation, can be very beneficial. Focusing on healthy habits such as regular ... | |||||
| RE: How to break free of phone addiction | 9 Relevance | 1 week 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.

| RE: How to break free of phone addiction | 3 Relevance | 1 week ago | Kenny | Addiction | |
| @annie-harris Yeah, trying to keep reminding myself to actually leave the phone far away before I get into bed. Believe it or not, sometimes I forget to do this and leave it close by. I need to change that. This forces me to get out of bed immediately as the sound of the alarm keeps getting louder and more bothersome so it should work well to get me up 😉 | |||||

| @james-sanders It’s great not to have that problem (of not going back to bed). It usually works for me, but there are days and days. Sometimes I just didn’t get my hours of sleep and feel very sluggish in the morning. Sometimes I just want to sleep for another 30 minutes or 30 hours :)). But overall, things are improving. I was doing some pushups in the morning but will add the Jumping Jacks as those seem even better at getting me alert and ready to go. And yeah, the more we replace phone time with anything else (working on a project, reading a book, talking with a friend, etc.) the better. | |||||

| @annie-harris Ah, the good old put your phone in another room or far away so you’ll have to get out of bed in the morning! I’m using it as well and it’s surprisingly effective. And I don’t have the problem of getting back to bed after I’m up. Once I’m up, that’s it. I’m not going back to bed no matter how tired I may feel. I find that doing a super quick, mini workout helps a lot. I usually do some pushups and some Jumping Jacks (these are extremely helpful to get the blood flowing and wake up) and I’m ready to hit the day running. Anyway, I’m not that much on my phone because I usually have other things to do. It’s either a work project that needs my full attention, or talking on the phone. I would say that the more work or hobbies you have the less you’ll be tempted to use your phone for anything else than talking on it. | |||||
