Yes, I have. I used to binge eat snacks, doom scroll on social media, and play excessive video games whenever I messed up. Although I still play video games now only in moderation. Earlier I used to play for 8-9 hours continuously. Almost every day I had some snacks or the other. All these were a deadly combination that led to my mental health spoiling even more. I was not doing anything for the betterment of my then situation and kept blaming everyone. I was just going with the flow.

Then I decided to cut down my screen time and do something productive. I forced myself to stop using my phone, stop playing games, and reduce my snack intake. I stopped staying in my room and stayed upstairs so that I could focus on my studies. I played at least an hour every day. It was tough to cut it down from 9 hours to one hour, but I got it done after practice. I only used my phone when it was absolutely necessary and kept snacking to a minimum. None of them were easy but with perseverance, I lost my bad coping mechanisms.
