♡ welcome ♡ → this is a rant on scratch addiction ︵︵︵ ▹ context ‧₊˚ ⇨ i decided to add a project to wynn and while i was brainstorming ideas i thought of the amount of people that leave because of scratch being addicting ⸻ ⸻ ⸻ ⌗ problem ‧₊˚ ✦ scratch is addicting- there is no other way of saying it. it just is. ✦ on one of my very old accounts i left scratch and i honestly felt so much better but i remembered my friends on scratch and after 3+ break I'm back and addicted again :/ ✦ and I'm not the only one, when i asked @sincerely-wynn whether she felt like she was addicted she said that "i would consider myself addicted...you find yourself becoming addicted to checking msgs and being on the site", @luvlock also stated " I easily get distracted when Doing school work just to see scratch! I am vv addicted to it and I admit it!" ✦ a lot more people replied to my interview comment about being addicted but those two just stood out. ✦ addiction is a serious issue be sure to read below for some helpful tips ⸻ ⸻ ⸻ ⌕ solution ‧₊˚ ⟡ one way is to leave scratch altogether (ik most of you wont but it is the BEST method- so I'm just putting it out there) ⟡ another way is to make a posting schedule- however make sure it isn't something crazy like posting every day/2 days, give yourself at LEAST three days to prepare your projects without feeling addicted to doing it ⟡ if you keep trying to leave and keep coming back, consider getting one of those website blockers and block scratch - idea by @lilactears- ⟡ limit your scratch screen time- scratch is very distracting, one moment you say "I'll just check my messages" and an hour later your still on and completely distracted. make sure you set a timer with a notification so you are reminded to get off scratch ⟡ prioritize school work, friends, family, sport, exercise and eating over scratch ⟡ and finally ONLY go on scratch while you're at home/in your normal environment- if you do it on your PC at home then when your out and about you check it on your phone its just adding to the addiction- only check it at home! ⸻ ⸻ ⸻ ▹ credits ⚠ rant: @rantaway ⚠ inspo: ⚠ interview content: ⚠ ᵖˡᵉᵃˢᵉ ᵃˢᵏ ᵗᵒ ᵘˢᵉ ᵐʸ ᶜᵒⁿᵗᵉⁿᵗ ᵃⁿᵈ ᵈᵒⁿ'ᵗ ʰᵉᵃᵛⁱˡʸ ʳᵉᶠᵉʳᵉⁿᶜᵉ· ʳᵉᵐᵉᵐᵇᵉʳ ᵗᵒ ᶜʳᵉᵈⁱᵗ ᵐᵉ ᵃⁿᵈ ᵃˢᵏ ᶠᵒʳ ⁱⁿˢᵖᵒ ⁺ ᶜʳᵉᵈⁱᵗ ᵐᵉ ᵈⁱʳᵉᶜᵗˡʸ· ᵒᵗʰᵉʳʷⁱˢᵉ ʸᵒᵘ'ˡˡ ᵇᵉ ʳᵉᵖᵒʳᵗᵉᵈ, ᵗʸ! ⸻ ⸻ ⸻ © rantaway ♡♡
