As if tomorrow I'm going to give up my phone for 5 days.
I just have been thinking recently that I'm so reliant on my phone and it's always in my hand and I'm always really anxious if my battery is below a certain level me what not. So this is a test to myself. Anyway I'm going to try and stay away from everything computer related for that 5 days as well like Facebook and Twitter etc. I may do the same here but maybe not if I'm feeling crappy then I'll be on not gonna feel for alone and crap just to prove a point to myself. But yeah I'm doing it more to see if it has any effect on how I've been feeling recently. I know I can't blame my phone for it but I see things I don't want to see, I read things I don't want to read, so let's see how I feel after 5 days without it lol
Xx

Hello
Well then you are giving up your phone for 5 days hey
Wont you need it when you are going to work & things , dont ask me what the things are ,I dont no , bit tired here
Well there is no harm in experimenting to see how things go , do a few myself at times !
Have to admit though when my modem broke the other week & I couldnt get on the internet & it took them a week to get a new one out to me , I ended up buying a dongle !
Wasnt really to do with this site or FB or anything , but once I had no internet I was shocked just how much I use it for lots of things !
My experiment now has come up with , I need the internet & if I cant keep of things when I should do , log out as I am idle , forget my passwords because I dont keep things simple & have just one password no I have several & then cant remember them so it stops me going on things so quick & gives me time to reason with myself
Well let us no how it goes , will miss you
Love

Do they still do phone boxes
Oh I remember them , goodness , I could hardly ever use one , they are the most filthy things & the germs well ......thats my OCD coming out there , I could write a list why you shouldnt touch them
You will be at work the 5 days ? you will have a phone there if needed
Oh I no , the smell , I remember it to & that receiver well , I couldnt touch it never mind put it to my ear , it was a work of art me getting round that one !
Can you remember as well when a que would start to form outside & you were having to hurry up or pretend you couldnt see them all starting at you
Yep makes you appreciate mobiles more looking back , never had enough change so was always dreading hearing those pips going beep beep then you had few seconds left xx
Yes & when the pips went you would start talking really fast trying to get in what you wanted to say , then you would stand there & say to yourself Oh dear thats it the pips went
I got rid of my Facebook profile permanently! It gave me too many things to worry about. Somehow any bad vibe that is going around gets amplified by Facebook, and it's easy to imagine a bad vibe even if there isn't one.
This was making my anxiety worse, but really I'm surprised anyone wants to bother with it, even people who don't worry unreasonably. Does all that gossip really add anything to people's lives?
