Surviving Cell Phone Addiction


The Purpose:
In this project I will compare multitasking and cell phone addiction to determine how all of my peers’ use their phone daily. My peers’ downloaded an app called Checky to see how much they checked their phones. 

My Conclusion:
In conclusion, research and my personal findings prove that it is not hard to get addicted to your phone. You might not even notice it. People feel the need to constantly check their phone because their is something in our brain called dopamine in our brain that gives us a feeling of a need to do something. Dopamine makes humans happy and is let out when we all check our phones because of the content on it.

The Next Steps:
  • Delete any apps that you don’t need and you know makes you constantly check your phone.
  • Sign up for other activities that will occupy you 
  • Get an actual alarm clock.
  • Turn off ALL notifications.
  • Put your phone away and turn it off in class, meetings, etc.
