Over the past while, I realized I was spending too much time on this platform... I felt like my life could be so much more... I'm happy I got this sorted out by the time I turned 21. Good luck for those who are struggling with this issue, you got this.
youtube addiction is a real thing lol, I find myself spending 8-10 hours on this site the algorithm is insane. Going to the gym definitely does help take some time off it lol
I so relate to you on this one. I just found you account and I'm so thankful!! I'm a gap year student after my school is over, preparing for medschool and almost giving up on the plan of doing medicine because I cannot get any work done.. I feel like I've wasted all my time on this crap and I am addicted. I need youtube to study but I will not use it for anything else. I need to get work done.. I wont let this shit waste my life anymore!!
@@Martin_Leung I have this extension that doesnt allow youtube to show recommendations, now when I open youtube, I have to think hard about what I want to watch 😅 although I still waste time here, It has gone down considerably. I'm trying to study as much these days, not that productive but I'm getting started!!
This is so helpful, thank you. There are particular channels I have been in the habit of watching. I think it's partly due to loneliness... I can pretend someone is present in the room, and it becomes hours of binge watching. Sad, I know. I need to make radical changes, and this video (and your earlier one on the same topic) helps a lot.
Might need to give your personal electronics to your friends to hold onto for a few days (if you don't need it for work) and see how you feel without yt
4:57am just from watching your other video. My attack plan is going cold turkey, unless learning something like python. Cold turkey worked for me with Instagram so going to try that with UA-cam. Because I watch 99.9 percent of YT on my phone. If I am learning something I will try use the PC or second phone. Also, I will use the extension you recommended on PC. Will report back 🫡

you know, the funny thing is that: I didn't click on the video, it auto-played on UA-cam.
haha the irony
