Since we are sharing our getting out of doom scrolling stories, I’ll share how I got off Reddit. I realized that most of what I was reading on Reddit was fabricated outrage (since then they’ve added subs like “makes your blood boil” and “idiots in cars” - check them out if you feel like you are not outraged regularly enough) I was the type of person who would sit on Reddit, be bored and type Reddit in the url bar. So I decided to quit Reddit and used habitica for the task. It’s a gamification for to-do lists and forming habits. I added “visiting Reddit” as a minus 1, and every time I realized I was on Reddit I opened habitica and gave myself a minus 1. Fictive internet points are quite powerful. I also started flossing this way (flossing at night, +1) |
