So, uh, I don't know how to tell you this, but it sounds like you're an addict. You should consider taking days off from your phone. Like, 100% powered off. The false sense of urgency your phone provokes destroys your productivity and makes you less happy. You gotta unlearn that reflex.

I mean it can definitely be both. Speaking from personal experience, and most people ive known with adhd, it tends to make you way more prone to addictive behaviours.
