Would you go cold turkey from wasting time on phone if you we me?

So I probably waste about 4-5 hours a day reading stuff on my phone every day. I'm a terrible procrastinator. My house is a filthy tip, washing and hoarded nonsense everywhere.

I just can't seem to break the habit and moderate my phone use or pull my finger out and get my jobs done.

Should I just go cold turkey?

Yes, it's not adding value to your life and it actually sounds like it's making your quality of life worse.

Yes definitely. I waste time on my phone too so I know how hard it is to give up but my house is not filthy and things aren't neglected.
If it gets to that point then you've got a problem.

I like being distracted all the time so when I do housework I watch stuff like Buffy or Gossip Girl on my tablet as it doesn't require much concentration, or I download an audio book (free from library) or I listen to the radio while I do chores.
