We're Not Addicted to Smartphones, We're Addicted to Social Interaction | Communications Major | Scoop.it

A new study reports cell phones may be making us hypersocial, rather than antisocial as previous research suggests.

 

Steps to regain control over smartphone addictions :

  • Relax and celebrate the fact your addiction reflects a normal urge to connect with others!
  • Turn off push notifications and set appropriate times to check your phone intentionally.
  • Create “intentional protocols” with friends, family and work circles to set clear expectations on when to communicate.
