What I really mean is just putting it out of arm’s reach. So if you sit down to take a break, put it somewhere where you can’t pick it up. Personally, I have literally tossed my phone out of arms reach several times when I found myself dead tired but still doom scrolling.
Perhaps I will even act on it, at some point.
I recommend not looking at it as a giant task, but as something you can gradually do, little by little. If you can do a little tiny something right now, even if it is the smallest, most seemingly worthless action, you have at least started.
