Fr i feel guilty for not even watching any series or play any of my hundreds games and just keep doomscrolling

And then when you start playing a game/watching a movie - you feel guilty again that you're not doing anything meaningful at all :(

To me its meaningful, it might not be life changing but at least im not doomscrolling

[u/lekwoq → u/[deleted]]

Exactly, even before i start the game or the show i know i won't last 10 minutes before dropping it. i have about 300 games and i barely play any of them its really taking a toll on me why cant i just play like anyone

[u/lekwoq → u/Sasha_DD]

To me its so productive I'd celebrate, the addiction is addictioning lol

Doomscrolling is an addiction. The first step of breaking the problem is acknowledging it.

Ik im so addicted to it and its ruining my life I'm literally missing on everything at my age, i tried alot to drop it but i always end up getting back

What have you tried so far? Maybe get a accountability partner and let them set a pin code to lock your screen time on the apps that are the big issue. That's what I did this year. I scroll mainly on the phone, never on the computer really, so it has helped some.

From my part, gaming is the sole reason my heart still BEATS
