I didn’t like that I had so little self control; but it mostly happens to me when I’m home alone for long periods of time
Makes me feel like I’m wasting time
Just yesterday I was lying in bed unable to put my phone down because of reddit. It made me feel sad and like I was wasting my life
I quit using tikotok because of this. You feel ashamed and lazy for wasting time
One day I did nothing but was on social media reading anything and everything. Made me feel very useless but it did relax me somewhat cause I was by myself
I have binge watched; and it has made me feel so calm and eager at the same time. It was good brain off time
I feel guilty and lazy and frustrated with myself. I feel I’m wasting time
If media didn’t have the power to grab and hold my attention; I would probably spend a lot more time maybe doing or finding another hobby like reading
It negatively effected my sleep
It’s like a compulsion. I don’t like it
I was tired and wanted to go to bed but kept opening my eyes to watch. It was frustrating because I couldn't sleep
It makes me feel helpless and pathetic and depressed
it's distracting how social media is very addictive
I think it would be positive to not feel that sense of “addiction” to the scrolling. To feel I could just quickly look but not get stuck scrolling
It makes me feel like my life force is dying
It feels like being hypnotized you have to snap yourself out of it
Like I was addicted
It’s hard for me to imagine what i’d do without media since i’ve never really been able to entertain myself without it
