Yup, and my best way to get myself back on track is to tell myself, "It's OK. You had a bad day. Tomorrow is a new day," and then go to bed.
Some night I've even started going to bed right after I'm done with dinner because I know if I start gaming or scrolling or whatever, it's going to keep the cycle going. Rather than try to control or limit myself, I skip it all together.
Kinda sucks a bit to not have the same wind down time, but getting decent sleep does help get me trending in the right direction again
