I tried to do that in the past when I my depression was more severe. I thought that'd help me, but I replaced staring at my screen with staring at wall or just sleeping.

So you just tried to replace your compulsive use of your devices with nothing, like the poster you replied to advised against. Great.
Unless I wrote it in a confusing way, in which case I do apologise
But thanks for telling me that; I'll be more careful in the future.
But I had nothing to replace this with, and I didn't magically became a disciplined or productive person. And then I would go back to my bad habits, just feeling even stronger self-hatred.
