How I got addicted to instagram



I’m sharing my personal story which helps you to control your precious time.

As you all know that getting addicted to something (good or bad) takes less time than you think.

I was 13 years old when I found myself addicted to scrolling on Instagram.I was troubled by this addiction. For dropping this addiction I started to read books. Books assisted me so much.But then I was getting bored and wanted to do something that makes me feel blissful.So I started my own business. My own small business🎀🫶.

I started my small business in 2023 when i was an Eighth grader. My goal was to spend my time useful.I wanted to do something that makes me feel exceptional.

I started my small business with marvelous intentions, but a few months later,I found myself addicted to the instagram again.

You know the type of addiction I’m talking about..

You post something on the Instagram and then impatiently wait for the people to response you with their love. And if you didn’t receive the responses you hoped for, you start guessing if there’s something wrong with the post or with you. And this is what makes you insecure that you haven’t enough potential and you start posting even more.

Then I started trying to use Instagram just for my business work.And started spending my time in organising my stuff and other productive activities.
