I am in
Day 25 @Bihari

 

Check in on day 2/30

I tried my new approach to this Yesterday, which is three daily sessions of 15 minutes online on either phone or PC. I really enjoyed being liberated from constantly checking my phone!

 

I haven't turned on my phone in months. I blocked Facebook, twitter, and instagram on my laptop. And I've never been healthier and happier.

 

So I'm going to jump into this. Tomorrow being day 1. Extreme mode!

0. PMO/P-Subs/edging.
1. Movies/ T.V. series.
2. YouTube.
3. All social media.
4. Carby/ sugary foods.
5. Video games.
7. Disturbing news media.
8. sex chat with your gf.

Although I will be using Youtube for studying purposes only as part of my course content is on there.

Day 2/30.

Nearly check insta yesterday but apart from that urge nothing. Sat and read Buddha for beginners as my evenings entertainment and I just felt so full of joy and inspiration. Life is good.

 

Happy Evening
Day 27 @Bihari

 

Checking in on day 4/30

 

Day 14/30

Interesting how, during Dopamine Detox, I tend to oscillate between having too many things on my plate to do and feeling bored on moments of spare time. I guess this has to do with some tendency to only consider fulfilling activities that gives highs/spikes on dopamine. The challenge is to rewire this pattern towards low dopamine and healthy hobbies.

 

Day 18/30.

 

I totally hear you on that, although I am already working through the list of jobs I had mounting for the last decade. Racked my entire garage out yesterday, was only going to do a bit but went mad and just smashed the whole thing from morning until night. Back on the reading trail so can only be good.

Day 3/30!
