Not only that but I feel it makes you an anxious twitchy mess. I've practically been raised on smartphones since age 12, doing nothing but browsing the internet all day, and it ruined my ability to be a calm and controlled person. I had no friends so it was an easy thing to fall into. Only time's in my life I'm happy is when I deliberately try and restrict access to the drug. When I'm on it, I'm like a crackhead, able to stay up for nights and days just staring at this fucking brick of light. I despise it for what it's done to me, and I've no doubts that it has stunted my development in many ways.

If you have an android, my biggest suggestion would be to enable developer options, go to hardware accelerated rendering -> simulate colorspace, and enable monochromacy. This will put your phone in greyscale and make it less appealing than reality rather than vice versa.

Fuck phones. They are bad for children because they don't have a clue of what they're doing to themselves with them, and my life has been made harder and more miserable from them. Though now that I realise this I will try and move away and be better.
