I want to control myself
Hello sir,
My problem is I am very addicted to virtual platforms like YouTube,Instagram, etc.
I spend too much time on those platforms and after spending my time I realised i ruined my time and feeling very guilty and after some time I forgot my guilt and started again spending time on the platform now I think my condition is too bad please suggest to me what I can do to overcome this situation
Feeling guilty is a sign of dependence.
