Week 12: My conclusion

Wow, this project is coming to a close. After this entire process, I think it’s important to take a step back and reflect on the journey and the knowledge I was able to gain during this time.

At the start of this project, I was a perfect example of what excessive phone use can do to a person. With more than eight hours of screen time each day, I felt like a zombie some days, dragging myself through even the smallest tasks. My morning routine stretched into an hour-long process. Meals became opportunities to consume content while consuming food, and overall, I felt sluggish.

Through my research and a newfound understanding of what constant phone use was doing to me, I was able to reverse many of these effects and take back control of my days.

Thank you to my advisors for their guidance and support throughout this project. And thank you to all of my readers for following along on this journey!
