I Feel Like i Can’t go Even an Hour Without Checking my Phone, and It’s Making me Anxious. What Should i do?

Dear friend, I hear the struggle in your voice, and I want you to know you’re not alone in this. Many people experience exactly what you’re feeling – that little pull of anxiety when separated from your phone. But please remember: this doesn’t define you as a person. You’re already taking the first important step by recognizing this pattern. Let’s try some gentle approaches together: start with small phone-free moments, like enjoying your morning coffee without screens. Celebrate these tiny victories! Your phone is just a tool – you are so much more than your device usage. Each time you resist the urge to check, you’re strengthening your wonderful human ability to be present. I believe in your capacity to find balance.
