    It is a good article. Your suggestions are certainly useful, but they don't address the real problem in my opinion.

    People fall down in addictions when they don't find their day-to-day life meaningful or enjoyable. When they like what they do, they don't waste time on their phones. So the real problem is that they should find better things to do.

      Sure. But it's hard to find better things to do if you distract yourself 24/7. From personal experience, blocking websites and taking steps like the ones in the guide creates space for you to think, and find the meaningful things you could be doing.

      Less phone use = more time to reflect and look for meaningful actions.
