How do I stop from using the internet too much?

Honestly, you don’t. You need to accept that. Find other things to occupied yourself without having to look at the screen too much.

Try to look for activities that don't involve the internet such as walking outside or reading a book instead. Maybe you can set up a goal such as not looking at the internet in the morning or the afternoon or at night. You can limit your screen hours or just turn off your computer or phone. Maybe try a new hobby that doesn't involve using the internet such as exercising or talking to a family member or talking to someone on the phone. Tell yourself not to use the internet and set certain times at which you will use the internet and when you won't and try to keep to it.

The internet, no doubt helps us get connected to the world in an intimate and more fulfilling way but cutting off becomes necessary when it forces you to disconnect from the here and now. I have been able to disconnect myself from using internet by uninstalling the app that were most time consuming and most importantly, I reflect on which of needs were getting satisfied by using the internet, one I figure that out I easily redirect to other activities which help me fulfill those needs. For example if my need to get attention is one thing that gets satisfied through the internet then I make sure that I spend enough time with my loved ones to keep myself from using the more unreliable source. This method has help me in the past and I do that even now when I try to detach myself from the virtual world.

I understand how you feel, especially during these quarantine times. It's hard to stay occupied and busy when you're home most of the time. However, the best way to stop yourself from using the internet excessively is to limit the time you use it and finding other ways to keep yourself busy. First of all, it helps a bunch to allot times of the day to use the internet (i.e. checking emails in the morning, doing work in the afternoon, and taking time to do other things in the day, etc.). Secondly, now is a great time to explore a new hobby or read a book (do things that you normally would not have the time to do!).

Start seeing the life beyond internet. I know it's addictive and somehow fantastic, but try some new places, wander, eat at new unknown joints, have a great friendcircle.

I have had a really bad facebooking problem but i overcame it. i loved to socialise with friends and random people. I later realised it was a bad idea as my grades were going down. I learnt about new interests that I have such as drawing and making music.

Try finding things outside of the internet to occupy yourself with, such as reading a good book or spending quality time with someone (and turn off or silence the phone).

Setting time limits may help, as well as planning non-internet related activities into your day. It may help to list reasons you want to spend time off the computer and then remind yourself of those things (like, when the alarm goes of after __ amount of time online, read through a list of reasons you want to stop). If it doesn't get any better and you're putting effort into changing your habits, it may be time to talk to a counselor and see if they can help you change your behaviors.

Find things that motivate you outside the internet. You can also put a timer to limit internet usage, and force yourself to do something like read or hang out with friends in other time.

Try and limit your time on it. I used to use the internet practically 24/7. I deleted every single social media account and things I had. This is the only internet I use, which is maybe a few minutes. Sometimes Google and YouTube are the only other two things I use besides this and I don't spend much time on either at all.

You can read, play and listen music or go outdoor with friends! You can do what you want outdoor, from shopping to or jogging in a park

Try other hobbies you might enjoy, it could be watching your favorite tv show, or simply hanging out with friends.

First of all it is important to figure out why you use the internet so much. Do you use ist to get information? To research? to work? to connect to people? just out of boredom? Once you've figured it out you can think about ways to replace the internet but still be able to do the same things... for example wring a letter instead of chatting on facebook.

Fortunately I have a garden at home and I can spend time outside which helps a lot to disconnect me from the internet. Also, I like to draw and dance, so I practice my hobbies to disconnect and because it also makes me feel good

The Internet is good sometimes, it helps when we wanna read something or watch a movie, listen to some music, even having new friends! But there are limits, too much Internet is not good. What you can do is find something creative to do, a passion, a sport, hanging out with friends, going to the cinema, etc. Find an activity!

That's a hard one. But I say you distract yourself with hobbies and activities that do not involve the Internet!

The internet is there for a reason figure it out . We do everything on the internet of we feel lonely or depressed and want some time to see whatts going on or feel better.

Indulge yourself in physical activities and educational stuff. Talk to your friends face to face rather chatting on internet. Read books, go outside, play games and spend lots of time with family. When you do this you wont even try to use the internet much.

Individual's can stop from using the internet too much by going out into the world and start exploring by making sure they do what they like to do!

I suggest first estimate how many hours you use the Internet each day. Then set an ultimate goal for how many hours you would like to use it. Then each day, pay close attention to how many hours you use it and try to log off 15 minutes less each day than the previous day until you reach your goal. If 15 minutes is too hard, log off 10 or even 5 minutes less than the previous day. If you can keep a written or typed daily journal of your usage and progress that will help you see your progress and to celebrate your success. Each time you reach a milestone that is meaningful to you, do something special for yourself as a reward, like getting a massage or eating a special treat. If you have diffculty and slip back into more usage, don't fret. You are not a failure - it's normal to have slips. Just try your best to get back onto your previous schedule before you slipped or at least start again by reducing time the next day and remind yourself it is a long-term work in progress. We are all human and we all have our challenges and all we can do is try our best.

I would look at maybe doing activities away from the internet such as joining a gym, socialising with friends on a face to face basis or even set your self an hour to check emails etc and once the times up just come off and switch it off.

Try using it less and less every day for one week. This will help you figure out other things to fill the time.

Try to pull away from any websites that don't make you feel good about yourself or that are not necessary. It will be difficult at first, but deleting accounts on websites is a great way to stop using the internet so much.

I felt I was on the internet too much, so I gave myself a project. I started re-doing furniture. It took all of my focus. Find a project to work on. It can be absolutely anything.

Distracting myself with something else, such as a book, playing an instrument or just walking around for a bit. After you're initially off the internet, it takes less initiative than the first step of getting off of it.

Try putting a small clock to tell you when you need to get off, if that doesn't work, set up a thing to shut the pc/laptop/phone etc. off and turn back on at a certain time,

Indulge in activities you like..like maybe reading, drawing, writing or anything that you like. Reserve the time you spend on internet...at first it might be a little hard to follow but with practice and right determination you'll be able to do it for sure. Think of better things that can grab your attention and try to do it daily...

A good way to stop using the internet is to set yourself a timer, when the timer goes off take a break and remove yourself from things that can connect to the internet. Spend sometime outside, reading, writing, talking to a friend, going for a run etc

So your problem is using internet so much. You should make a timetable and use computer only 1 hour per day, other times you should turn off computer and lose your connection
