Hi, it’s a daily challenge actually. I keep my phone on do not disturb so I control when I want to call/text people back. Instead of instantly replying when I hear my phone go off. I’ll set a timer to remind me to only spend X minutes on social media. I also try to play with my dogs a little bit to wear them out before sitting down to study so they just nap near me instead of wanting attention. I also put ear plugs in to minimize noise and try to inform people at home to not bother me for X amount of time. As for the worry and anxiety, you can try sticky notes or just writing down those thoughts to not be distracted by them and save them for another time to think about or deal with. Setting boundaries and timers really has helped me focus more. Hope that helps!
