It's ok to use your phone. It's not OK when your phone use disrupts your relationships or consumes more time than you'd really want.
What helped me, is backing away from services. Uninstall apps from your phone and use a web browser to visit them. You don't have to stop using them if you don't want to, just make them harder to get to and less noisy.
My phone is mostly for texts and phone calls now, and I don't do much else with it.
