Reels, Shorts Addiction

This is worse addiction than smoking, drinking.

Haven't watched any short/reels for 5 days straight feeling like a void inside.

But its better, Watching reels/shorts would give a feeling of satisfaction because of the dopamine release. So seeking other experiences for that dopamine hit. Life is getting better.

Exactly the reason I deactivated Instagram. It's been a year now. Don't even feel the need to ever go back.

How to get rid of that? Setting timer or digital wellbeing is not working for me 😃

Na na simple timer se kuch nhi chalega 😂

You'll set your timers, you might delete them, use the app for some more time, then put the timer again.
Now you need to prepare a sheet that depicts the sum of time used, now take a challenge for next week, to reduce by 10%.
In 2-3 months, you'll be a super good.

First of all uninstall them, use web app in desktop if you still crave for them.

Install ublock origin, and block reels and YouTube shorts for good from filter settings.

Tough though. I set up 30+ digit of encrypted password just to set a barrier for myself after uninstalling. Now I remember each and every digit of password and seamlessly logging in. :P
