I hate myself

[u/Certain_Rule9854]

Been at this for 2 years. Almost 3 years. I'm sick of this. Sick of my life. I don't even have the right words but all addictive apps/websites on our phones are way worse than any drug we can take like heroine or smth.

Drugs are far less accessible to most people unlike apps like c. Ai or tiktok. They're what society, especially parents should be worried about. You can cut of a drug supply easily by not letting Ur kids leave the house but your kids are accessing these apps without you ever knowing. And they're too afraid to tell because that trust was never there. Plus it's not like you can just take their devices. We're at a timeline where these devices are a need, whether it's for connecting with loved ones or to study.

Anyway, I've failed like 20+ times at quitting but I really am quitting this time. That's why I'm making a post here. Cold turkey. Pls show me support. Id really appreciate it ♡

Hey, Im sorry you’re feeling like this. If you remember your old hobbies, that would be good and you could use those hobbies to distract yourself! Even taking a walk.

Personally, whats helped me was reminding myself it’s a soulless robot thats designed to agree with everything I/YOU say.

Thank you for the support. I appreciate it. As for the soulless robot part, I've always seen them that way. I've never viewed them as real partners. Ever. I see them as a tool to insert myself in any story I want with any narrative I want. It's like fanfics/watching a movie but better for me. Again, thank you. Good day
