I am unable to catch up on all of the new shows because I can't watch TV without looking at my phone

ADD ass nikkas.....go read a book.

In all honesty that's why I like comic books.

I still get the visual stimulation but I'm forced to pay attention because I have to read, and unlike something like subbed anime or foreign films I can move on at my own pace, so if my mind trails off I just won't turn the page yet.

I cast Comixology to my tv and that's basically my Netflix. I use my tv for that more than watching actual tv these days. :yeshrug:

Pomodoro Method -
The Pomodoro Technique — Why It Works & How To Do It

Productivity 101: An Introduction to The Pomodoro Technique


You’ll probably be too ADD to read the articles but essentially - Cliffs:
Stay focused on anything uninterrupted and without stopping, any activity other than your phone for 25-45 minute intervals (with a 10-15 minute break in between) consecutively.
No I can still read just fine and I actually just finished Demon Slayer and I can still watch certain shows but I was trying to watch snowfall but I was just too addicted to my phone tonight

Okay I am on episode 3 of Snowfall season one.

I am only using my phone during the ads which are tied so I only get a limited time.

Hulu the GOAT for that :myman:

In my experience, this is a femine trait...

Every girl I been with can't focus on a movie for shyt unless we're in a theater because you have not choice.

How is using a phone or having ADD feminine :dahell:

Females do use Instagram and Facebook but I don't use those shyts.

I just rather read current events and news and learn new things :ehh:

I think some of this is a result of Covid and Quarantine because I have this issue sometimes and I never used to check phone my while watching something good. But being stuck at home for months and working from home Ive definitely become more accustomed to grab my phone every 10-15mins or so if im not actively doing something

For me its mainly to check my crypto portfolio but once you get ya phone and see notifications its hard not to go down the rabbit hole.

If its a good show or movie im actually into, I can put my phone down, but I can see how its become harder... But whenever its gets to be too much, ill turn my phone off a couple of hours and come to realize I didn't realize miss much at all. We just feel like we are
