OP, what I did was sell my phone and got a Nokia Torchlight for 2 months. While I was still in school, before exam period I sell off my phone. I'm always good at fighting addiction.

BTW, you can monetize phone pressing.

I know the situation you're in OP, discipline is the only way to curb this menace. There are also apps that can help you discipline yourself.

Check out this great article that I came across written by a fellow Nigerian that expanciated more on the problem, It's titled "DIGITAL SLAVERY"

The solution is for you to be determined to let go of your phone, even though by the virtue of the jobs I'm into, being on online is Paramount for me, but for real I have my days off the internet and all social media gadgets.....

Have you heard of EMF?
Most electronic gadgets emits this and it's bad for the body.

More so if the reason you are online is not to better your financial prospect now or in future..... I dare say as a Nairalander for you to have a re-think.
Mr Osewa is making his cool millions by the nano seconds. THINK! and get out of here now!!!!
LOL!!!!!
