I was at work about a week ago I had just placed a trade on binance and then my cell phone died. Because of my job binance is a no go and I was in a panic non stop for the next hour thinking of the trade I made. Lunch came I ran to the car plugged phone into charger and logged into binance only to see the trade never got filled. At this moment I realized I was addicted. So i have made a point to force myself off the internet daily since then to read a self help book that focus on peace of mind. The internet should be a tool to better our life not rule it. We can do things like hug a loved one share a cup of coffee with a significant other or play ball with the kids. Take time to enjoy life the internet will be there.

It is funny that you say that because I have enforced a file in myself to internet less and read more. It is working quite well. When my internet went off here I was also looking at a trade among other things which is what drove me into a panic. Less time on the internet is good
I made a decision a year ago to go easy with the internet.
Now I have to care for my mum since my brother passed away last Thursday (January 18). It's fun cos I get free meals and go to bed early while staying with her.
But I've urged my sister and #2niece to visit her often.
One of side effects of her mental health is a codependency that leads to her big anxiety attack if I mention I want to get out and do my own shit.
So I'm glad for the internet. My future plan with me mum is to get her watching videos on the tablet one day. I mean, there's only so much television programming as it is, given how cable has gone to pot with the crap they broadcast these days.
My goal is to teach her how to troll on the internet. We'll see how that pans out...
Just make sure you also incorporate time to take breaks and enjoy the good things life has to offer as that will also help with the anxiety. I honestly think teaching her to troll the web while being humorous could also increases that stress. All things can be good in moderation my friend.
