Thanks for this one, Mel! ❤️‍🩹 The consumption of news as self harm is all too relatable. You've inspired me in the recent past to take time away from social media and this post has some great practical tips.

I love the grey phone idea!! I've been doing it only in the evenings but I'm definitely going to try to do the whole day now.

So glad to hear from you Monica! You were one of my favorite folks to check up with and watch grow back on Insta.

Let me know what you think of your grey phone! It can be a bit tricky at first as we are all so used to the colors but try it out! See what you think.

I love it so far!! I've had it turned on for the majority of each day since I saw your post. I've definitely noticed my screen time has gone way down!! Woohoo!
