Plan your breaks ahead!
Going out with friends or family.
Be realistic - Accept the addiction and set a time to use the networks or play.
Remove notifications from your phone.
Reduce the number of apps on your phone.

You can write the time of the start and progress on the task.
Technology addiction can vary widely. Some of the most common include: Excessive texting
Online gambling
Online auctions
Compulsive web surfing
Unrestricted video game playing
Prolonged social media interaction

Technology addiction is the need to be connected all day long. The person suffering from this addiction has the feeling that when he or she is not connected, he or she is missing important information.
