why I cannot be without my phone for a weekend and the challenges I would face. [WE#183]

I just can't go a full weekend without my phone. I use it for everything - to text my friends, check social media, listen to music, take photos, and look up stuff online. Most of all, I'd be bored without it! Just sitting around with no apps or internet would drive me crazy. I guess I could try to watch TV or read a book, but I'd probably just count down the minutes until I got my phone back. A whole weekend would feel so long and dull.

Also, without my phone I wouldn't be able to call or text anyone if I needed something. What if I got invited to hang out with people last minute? Or if I needed a ride home from somewhere? I'd have no way to reach anyone easily. That would make me really nervous to go out and do stuff. Overall, I think a weekend without my phone would be super challenging and just really boring. I'd have to figure out other ways to entertain myself, which sounds hard. I'd probably just wish for Monday to come faster so I could have my phone again.

Going an entire weekend without my phone would be so extremely difficult for me. I seriously rely on that thing for like, everything. I know it's kinda bad, but I seriously can't live without it!
I mean, first of all, how would I chat with all my friends if I couldn't text or DM them?

And Snapchat! Ugh, If I didn't Snap all weekend I'd lose them all! That would be an absolute disaster. Plus no Instagram or TikTok either? How boring. I scroll those apps whenever I have even 30 seconds of downtime. I'd go nuts without my feeds to keep me entertained 24/7.
I know I should probs spend less time on my phone. But let's be real, for this social butterfly it's practically impossible to go cold turkey for multiple days. Maybe start with just an hour or two phone-free? Even that seems really hard though! I guess I'm just 100% addicted to this thing, for better or worse.

Oh geez, if I didn't have my phone for the whole weekend, I just know I'd be totally stressing about not being able to work on my blog! As a proud member of the Hive blockchain community, it is mandatory to be active in posting and engaging on there, like, all the time.
The Hive blockchain is where I share all my latest lifestyle posts, prompts etc ,it's basically my whole creative universe online! And my fellow Hive bloggers and I are always liking each other’s posts, commenting with suggestions on how to grow our blogs, and entering online contests together, I would miss chatting with my friends on discord mehn that place is another city on it's own.

But without my phone, I’d have no way to log into the Hive platform at all! Two whole days where I can’t check my notifications, reply to comments from my awesome community, or publish any draft posts I’ve been working on. I’d start to get so antsy! Sure I could work on some ideas the old-school way with pen and paper. But with no ability to actually publish or get input from my online friends, I’d start to feel disconnected.
