I have work I need to do but I find myself scrolling here and on 
for hours at a time. It feels paralyzing but also its hard to stop. Not like reading about Lolitics* makes me feel good so why am I addicted to it ๐
- I was gonna correct that but it works. LOLitics, because everything is fucked so hard you just gotta laugh...
I don't mean to be condescending, I've had the exact same problem you had. But the sooner you delete your reddit account and app, the better. Something WILL happen in reddit that absolutely disgusts you and pushes you to delete your account, so the sooner the better. It's like being in a toxic relationship, you can divorce the asshole now, or after 5 more years of trauma marriage and two STIs.
With your mobile, you're better off just deleting the apps. Back when Facebook was still fun, I had my partner own my fb account, so I literally had to ask her to login if I wanted to use it.
I own a Kobo ereader. Reading epubs during free moments is just so damn calming, I swear to God it literally feels good to read at lunch. There's epub readers for mobile if you need to stick with your phone. Podcasts are a good alternative if you don't like reading.
