Cutting back on social media can be easier said than done. To help you curb the habit, try setting a usage limit in your settings for a certain site or app, said Alexandra Finkel, LCSW, co-owner and therapist at Kind Minds Therapy. You could also set a timer on your phone for 10 or 15 minutes, said Marie Coma-Thompson, LPCA, a therapist at Bridge Counseling and Wellness in Louisville, KY. "When the timer goes off, put your phone down for a breather."
