I've been on the struggle bus quitting reddit for 5+ years. Even with this new level of energy to quit, I'm still on it for ~20 min per day.



Have you tried replacing it with something else?

I dramatically reduced my social media time a couple years ago by getting some casual games on my phone. Current favorites are NYT crosswords and solitaire.

Some innocuous mental stimulation to pass time that doesn’t come with the toxicity that social media can.


Unfortunately now I spend a lot of time on Fb and fb reels.

I catch myself thinking wayyy to much about whatever news article Fb shows me.

I also listen to fiction audiobooks, but none of the healthy things are also low brain energy like Reddit is.
