then you get to charge it as a little treat when you get something done. told myself today i would charge my phone once i got through a chapter of the fairly dense book i was reading and honestly i didn’t use my phone as much as i normally would the whole day
🎶let it die~ let it die~ let it shrivel up and die🎵
started doing this cause i had a stalker and then got used to sittin at 7% all the time and letting it die, am able to sleep so much more and tbh dont use my phone at all unless im reading on it
use my laptop for socials/messages cause thats like a whole process so i have to actually want to do it
recent mental health booster I stumbled onto when my phone ended up dead one morning, so I went to a cafe near me to journal/read for a couple hours without it. there were so many times I phantom reached for my it like the addict I am, very glad I couldn’t that day or else stupid things would have been done. I was forced to sit in the moment and process my thoughts without being able to actively do anything or contact anyone. did it the next day purposely and I had such a good day. leave your phone at home sometimes when you’re bumming around your area doing small errands! also forces you to learn your surroundings rather than relying on google maps.
two women next to me on the train are having an insightful heart to heart. a guy behind me is clearly flirting with this girl and you can tell it’s mutual. we all have rich, rich inner lives :)
