If you&#39;re not seriously addicted to it, however, you could decide for yourself to reinstall some of them occasionally (once a week or so).<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Tatiana P.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">It\u2019s as simple as finding something else to do that makes you happy. That can be exercise, art, singing, or really anything else. It\u2019s good to get off your phone very hour or so. My favorite thing to do is listen to music and dance around my room. I know, I know&#8230;it does require my phone and Spotify to listen to music, but I\u2019m not really on my phone. (If you do this, don\u2019t change the song when one you don\u2019t like as much comes on&#8230;just go with the flow)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Owen Z.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I think it&#39;s a case of removing ease of access of these things. Maybe try uninstalling any apps that would make it easy to let these things distract you. Also perhaps set designated times where you can use social media or Netflix so you&#39;re not completely getting rid of it, which is probably more daunting.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Andreas P.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Remind yourself that you are the captain. You decide what you want to do with your day&#x2F;evening&#x2F;time. Netflix and social media doesn\u2019t control you.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Sylwia N.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">You need to find something interesting in reality. Try some hobby, where computer  or smartphone  is not involved. And in time you will find tha<br \/>\nt it&#39;s easier, than seems in the beginning.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Elizabeth S.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Try to plan some other activities like reading a book, or excercising at particular times during the day. It\u2019s also good to disconnect and unplug in the evening when we spend most of our time browsing the Internet. Switch all your devices off, and enjoy a nice music or a bath with candles around \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Mario S.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I do too. Usually I&#39;ll just do something that&#39;s kind of pampering&#x2F; self care kind of thing instead. I&#39;ll do something that I never feel like I have the time for, like doing my nails or taking a hot bath with a book.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Kenzo G.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Don&#39;t try and stop binge watching or being on social media try and interrupt your activity with an alarm for example that makes you go into another room<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Gers O Z.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I make it more difficult for myself. I delete the apps from my devices and only use my computer for them. Also I have canceled Netflix or other streaming services before. I then create habits that fill that time or cut back on activities that I did while watching. Like no more wine or beer while. Watch. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Beatriz Q.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I am the same way.  I just literally have make myself get off.
