![]() This is saying something because most people, or at least for myself, I wasn't that cognizant of my emotional and mental needs. Yeah, now I have the "reputation" of being the guy "who's never reachable." But it's worth it. It's not a remote which others use to control you or your time. You need to psycho you mindset that your phone is your tool. Otherwise, sometimes I even reply the next day. If it's important/urgent/necessary, I reply. So only msgs and calls from my girlfriend, father etc will come through. I created an exception via the app notification. Right now, I've turned off all notifications on all social media apps including WhatsApp, telegram, Facebook etc. Then once I accustomed myself to not automatically answer a msg or a call when I receive one, I kept it on and silent. But remember that if you give in, they will keep pushing. Once they get used to it, they won't complain. But don't answer anything until a few hours later. Like if you want to ease people into it, keep your phone on but super slient. Once you give some leeway, people will keep pushing it. If nothing else, then that taking such breaks helps your mind rest and recover. Sit down, read a book, listen to music, or go out and run, or just walk, or just sit still and look at trees and birds and dogs. Take a break from your phone, from social media, from people, whatever you need a break from. If something is hurting you physically, then you'll move away right? But your mind can only "tell" you this way, there's no physical pain to push you to safety. Remember, listen to what your body and mind tells you. ![]() Sometimes if you feel you need a break, then you need a break. I think that comment will apply to you too. Hey little sis, here's a comment I made on another post asking about keeping his phone off. Moderators have full discretion in making decisions they deem to be in the best interest of the subreddit.
