RE: Psychology Addict # 38 | Social Media – What is Your Cue to Stop?

in #psychology6 years ago

hi my great @abigail-dantes the truth I have this great problem I have experienced some of the emotions that you explain in your publication, I have also tried to correct them but it is impossible because social networks are an addiction and make me forget everything external and good now that steemit appeared to my life much more. What advice do you give me as a spicologist to improve not being so addicted to social networks? regards

Hello there @catire383 :)

I truly appreciate your honesty! Recognizing that you feel a certain compulsion towards social media is a great step towards improving your behavior. NO one type of addiction is healthy! It is important to keep this in mind.

My advice is take control. Be the one in charge. Minimize the media you are in. For example, nowadays I am only on Steemit. Allocate how much type to spend on it! I mostly come around on the weekends. Find other constructive things to do offline - write, read, go for a walk. Without your phone, of course. There are A LOT of things you can do to stop this compulsion Catire.

You just need the discipline and the will to do it! 😉
