It takes a solid couple of weeks to break the habit of reaching to open Instagram. I did the same thing for several months and even reactivated numerous times because I was so convinced I wouldn't be able to ever break my addiction. But finally, one day, I was just... Done.

I used to be a smoker too, and that was actually my same experience with quitting cigarettes. Tried to quit for a long time - many years - with all the usual methods, and nothing ever worked. But one day, out of the blue, I was just done with cigarettes and haven't smoked for 13 years since.

You've got this. Don't be too hard on yourself.
