The Withdrawal Symptoms are real... I actually picked up reading mangas online as a replacement. Still have difficulties focusing on that one activity. Reddit has really damaged this ability of mine that I have to rebuild now...
Problem is yt shorts took over my brain after reddit
I feel ya. Same for me. I really have to force myself to NOT doomscroll short videos whatever the platform may be. Being able to focus for long durations on a single activity ain't easy, but way more rewarding than eating a bunch of M&Ms one by one at high speeds.
I guess this is how smokers who try to quit feel.
