I checked my phone's screen time and saw I spent 87 minutes on one app yesterday.
It was just a simple game, but seeing that number made me freeze. I started thinking maybe I have a problem, or that I'm wasting my life. I even looked up articles about phone addiction. Does anyone else get freaked out by their own screen time report?

Ugh, yes, that report is a gut punch. I opened mine last week and had over 3 hours just on one social media app, which felt insane. It made me delete the app off my phone for a few days straight.

Right? @kaip11, I did the same thing! Setting a strict 30-minute daily timer on my phone was the ONLY thing that actually worked for me.

Gotta disagree with you both on that. Setting a timer just made me obsess over checking the clock, felt like I was punishing myself. I actually found my screen time went down naturally when I stopped tracking it and just focused on doing other stuff I actually wanted to do. The whole strict limit thing felt like a bandaid, not a real fix.
