I have been addicted to it since 4 years( I am a teen if thts relevant, currently 17 ) and haven't stopped a day. I think of stopping every single day and every single day I loose. I just get tempted by even the slightest of things. This is really messing with my mental and physical health and I just can't stop, even if I really want to. Everytime I say this is it no more my brain tries to fight it with the silliest of excuses to get me to do it. Idk how to stop .

Glad you want to make a change towards a healthier lifestyle.

Metaphorically, it is impossible to change the tides of the ocean. When a tidal wave happens, the only way to survive is to learn how to surf. Once you learn to surf, the waves no longer prevent your happiness.

Instead of control, there are many alternative options that are effective. I hope you can be gentle with yourself as you realize the state of mind that produces your symptoms, and the insights that rise above it. Thank you. 😊
