It's a pretty interesting statement. I used to be fine with "microboredoms" and think about other things, such as a book I'm reading, a game I want to play, or even work.
I noticed these days that I spend more time during those "microboredoms" on my phone. I have 10 seconds? Check out reddit!
I've been trying to kick this habit, enjoy my surroundings more, or get lost in my head like I used to.
- MatthiasPortzel 3y agoCarrying around a fidget toy has helped me with this. Part of the urge to scroll on my phone is just to do something with my fingers. If my fingers are occupied with a bit of string or a finger-trap, my mind is more free to wander.

- checkyoursudo 3y agoI sympathise. This is a really hard habit to break.
