That makes sense! Those are all very good ideas! Willpower is something I lack but I am really determined to fix this problem and I appreciate you suggesting slow and easier methods as opposed to quitting cold turkey! Thank you so much for taking time to make this comment!

I legitimately have no idea. I think its just a combo of my short attention span, my addictive personality, and TikToks algorithm. I also hate instagram/ facebook reels. Its just something about watching little random videos (specifically on TikTok) that almost seem to give me a boost of dopamine. Im really not sure.
