A clear practical guide that will help get rid of a painful craving for a smartphone and establish a healthy relationship with it.

Indeed, the smartphone has a number of undeniable advantages: this is not just a means of communication - thanks to it, we can at any time go to the network and receive an answer to the question that interests us, check the mail, watch the weather, answer messages in messengers, visit social networks, track Traffic jams, pay bills, book tickets, watch a schedule in the cinema, store many photos and videos ... Finally, they are just very beautiful.
Without noticing how, we quickly get used to the smartphone and do not imagine how to do without it. We spend much more time with him than we planned. In the morning, after we woke up, we first turn to the smartphone, and we also fall asleep with it. At the same time, if we do not have the opportunity to take the phone in our hands, we feel uncomfortable and begin to be sad. This behavior resembles a painful dependence. We are more tired, become less attentive and productive, we have increased the level of anxiety and stress, and communication (for which the phones were created) in reality becomes less. But even realizing the negative consequences of using gadgets, we often do not find the strength to abandon them, and this only strengthens our discontent.
