How to Stop My Phone Addiction?
Question by Zoe: How to stop my phone addiction?
So I have two friends that text me everyday. If I dont text back at first then they just text again in like 10 minutes. This goes on almost all day. If I do text them back they have extremely long conversations and if I just stop texting they continue to text me! If I ignore them for a long time they automatically think that I am mad at them. I usually do text them back cut not because I want to but because I am trying to be friendly. I think that all of my texting has turned into an addiction. I have noticed that I have to have my phone with me at all times. If I dont have it with me a feel anxious and I am continuously thinking about it. I can keep myself away from it, but I am always thinking about it. How can i make this stop!

One thing that may help is if you try meditating…. Before you get up each morning, sit for 30 minutes and just clear your head. Don’t think about anything. Don’t think about what you have to do that day, don’t think about your problems, just focus on your breathing. When thoughts pop into your head, don’t continue to think about them, just let them float away.
I think this may help you calm down, and appreciate being alive, and help you live in the present moment.
It couldn’t hurt to give it a try! And maybe you could also read a self-help book, or set rules for yourself about your phone. And another thing I like to do when I am having problems with myself is focus on other people. That is, go out and be productive and help others!
Good luck!

Speak to your friends and tell them how you feel, tell them you think the text situation is taking over and that it would be a good idea to try and say everything in one or two messages a day rather constantly harassing you. I am sure they will understand, tell them the truth that it is disturbing you, you are not made with them and want to stay friends but cannot continue with the phone situation the way it is, it is getting you down. I am sure they will see sense.
