Firstly, limiting your time on internet can be greatly helpful. Per se you can only use your phone for
1 hour a day.(Young) It might be hard in the beginning but it can be greatly beneficial. You can
concentrate more on your work,your studies or your children. There are several apps created for
this purpose. These apps will disable the internet on your phone once you used your limit. It can be
very helpful to people with weak willpower.You might ask the question,what if i did all my
work/homework/task and I have nothing else to do? The answer is easy:get a hobby.


In addition, hobbies can be great distractions against your addiction. There are thousands of hobbies
out there and you can also invent one too! It never gets boring and if it does you can just move on
to another. If you have a hobby to care about, you will spend less time on your phone because you
are busy with your hobby. Stamp collecting,doing sports or any kind of hobby can boost your confidence
and reduce the need of social media. Of course you can share your achievements on social media
,making yourself more interesting and open. 87% of the asked people said that their grades,performance
and social interactions has been improving since they got a hobby(Mazzola).


Lastly, setting rules in the house or to yourself can help with addiction to. At first start with simple rules
,for example no phones at the dinner table or shut off the router after 9pm. Parents can join in this too
or fellow wives or husbands(Joyce). Like that it’s fair for everyone and the acceptance of the rules will . be faster. Not only it will help the addiction but it will improve your bond with our family or marriage. Going out together, without using phones, will result in happy hours therefore improving the morale. Before you even realise, you won’t need your phone as much as before.
