No the hard part is actually stopping using it many people in a tiktok or other addictions know it's hard they just can't stop

I like chess and play some every day

Actually the reason I am complaining is to get more red notifications which provide more dopamine

Probably

really? i mean… i don’t see how you could genuinely be controlled by a addiction, especially one as benign as tiktok or .org

When you see a toothless unwashed 60 year old camped out of a tent in the Walmart parking lot licking his lips as he takes his pipe out

That’s how it feels when I open tiktok

most people in addictions like porn or tiktok doomscrolling know it's hard for them they just can't stop since they're so dopamine deprived in their own lives they use it to cope and feel good for a few hours it's fucked up honestly execution in stopping an addiction is hard

genuine question because i’m curious as to see if it correlates with something: what is your age?

i see, i mean obviously we all use stuff to get rid of the bad things in life for a few hours, it’s crazy how it ramps up, from mild porn to more intense porn, or from 1 cigarette to 3, jeez

dude, i was like u when i was 16, i decided to just get over with it and try to see if i had adhd, got diagnosed, got adhd meds and it fixed pretty much all of it, ofc a anecdotal experience, but adhd meds tend to work in most people, adhd or not (mainly stims)

It’s a lot easier to start a habit then break one. You will never get out of the cycle by just trying to catch yourself every time and stopping. You need to substitute it with something else. Step down from TikTok->music->reading every time you get bored or want to take your mind off something. Basically just replace it with less engaging habits that you can control.
