To keep this simple, I (25, M) have a difficult time staying off my phone and computer at night when i should be doing anything else. I don’t do the things i want like working on creative projects or setting up lunch for the next day. This causes me to sleep late and wake up with barely enough time to get to work. When i get off work i do the same thing. I waste time until i realize it’s 1am and I have done nothing. While i’m at work I tell myself that “today is the day i’ll do some much needed chores, organize my stuff for work, and sleep early” and I truly believe it and want to do it. Then I get home and it’s like i’m a totally different person that just plops down and even avoids the app limit app that i use to try and control my doomscrolling. It feels like the monkey brain inside me is so persistent and consistent outplays the rational part of my brain that wants to focus on more important things. Any advice or help is GREATLY appreciated. submitted by /u/lonetelly
