the final step is, to leave the internet, stop browsing here, stop browsing on other sites. Just close the laptop and put the smartphone away. If i could i would throw my phone as hard as possible against the nearest wall, but i need it for work. Society keeps us chained to these fucking things now, my parents chew me out for playing too much games on consoles or the pc, and now they are glued on their phone scrolling, scrolling scrolling. The only way for me to escape is to get rid of the devices, otherwise my willpower is too weak, but as i said this fucking society is too far gone and pulls us in

dont know, probably be forced to fill my time with anything. But i already was out of smartphone for half a year in 2020. it was super peaceful, was reading, doing sports, listening to music on my old mp3 player while riding around aimlessly on my bike. But i was out of work back than. But nooo, you just have to get a fucking smartphone for fucking work, and now i actually have a few friends and i communicate with them too. But back than i was actually happy, had a clear head. It took like 2 weeks and my attention span was restored. my mind wasnt cloudy anymore. no more doomscrolling for several hours. This shit is poison. socially acceptable poison. not only accepted, it gets pushed down my fucking thoat. i wish one day i will get the guts again to get rid of my fucking electronics. Yes i read so fucking many books in this time

for me books are just another form of media but at least you can learn from them. issue for me is to get physical books, i don't wanna go to no library and if i wanted to replace all of my habits with books i'd still need my pc and internet to get ebooks
