I'm just so sick and tired of these stupid screen time limits my parents have put on my devices. It's like, 5pm to 10pm on weekdays, and then 11pm on weekends. Can you believe that? I'm 15, turning 16, and I STILL have screen time limits.
It's not like it's actually helping me be less "addicted" or anything. All it does is make me waste my whole day just waiting for that precious screen time to start. Then I end up trying to cram in as much as I can before the time runs out.
And don't even get me started on how I've resorted to sneaking on my devices when I can. My parents think they're being so smart, but all they're doing is driving me further into this online escape.
I mean, school is already the worst. I hate it there - the classes, the "friends", all of it. The internet is the only place where I can truly be myself and feel understood.
Sometimes I just wish I could crawl into my computer screen and live there forever, you know? At least then I wouldn't have to deal with all this crap in the real world.
I'm so done, you guys. I'm done with my stupid school, my stupid friends, my stupid life. The only thing that makes me feel better is being online, but now even that's being taken away from me.
Well, I'm not going to just sit back and take it. I'm going to keep finding ways to sneak on my devices, no matter what my parents say. Because the internet is the only place where I can truly be free.
I guess you could say I'm addicted. But at this point, I really don't care. The internet is my escape, my sanctuary. And I'll do whatever it takes to keep that alive.

well, you could do what i did and wipe the whole phone/computer. although it depends what restrictions you have and if theyll be notified of you deleting it. and if your parents are like mine where they only care about taking away your tech when they're mad and then literally forget the next day then they probably wont ever realise that youve romoved restrictions. try seeing if you can delete it, if you cant then think about doing a wipe. i reccomended using google photos to back up your photos

they hide my devices until 5pm and then I have to hand them back as soon as my time is up. ಥ_ಥ They don't really track what I do online otherwise, which is why I'm able to have these blogs and use incognito mode. :3 But they don't let me have any social media accounts, and I'm not allowed to talk to people online,,;;;

wow that really sucks. and considering your other blogs your parents seem to prefer your other sibling over you :( if this isnt exaggerated or anything i recommend cutting them off when your older. and if you can... you could buy a burner/secret phone. idk how it is where you live but at least in my country they have these cheap ass phones in supermarkets near the checkouts. and you could go to the library and use the computers there if your able to do that.
