Hello!
I'm Mikan, a Japanese writer!
Thank you for always watching my videos.
Today I will introduce my book!
www.amazon.co....
This is a book I wrote,
``I want to stop being a slave to my smartphone.''
This book is based on my actual experience.
I've been addicted to my smartphone for four years since I got my first smartphone.
From the time I woke up in the morning to the time I went to sleep, I kept an eye on my smartphone in the bath, toilet, and even during class.
I was desperate for likes on social media.
When I received fewer likes than my previous post, I felt like I was being rejected.
Because of my desire for approval, I also lied a lot in my social media posts.
I received calls from suspicious people, slander and slander, which had a negative impact on my physical and mental health.
But I couldn't quit because the people around me were also addicted to smartphones, and smartphone addiction is the majority of modern people.
It's peer pressure.
Everyone in the world doesn't see ``smartphone addiction'' as a problem.
No one in the world sees ``smartphone addiction'' as a problem.
Because it's "normal".
However, I realized that being addicted to smartphones is difficult.
I realized that many people have become ``slaves to their smartphones.''
It's not that everyone is ``using a smartphone,'' but rather that they are ``being used by their smartphone.'' It seems that smartphones are dominating and subjugating humans.
Although I noticed that
It's hard to break free from being "the same as everyone else."
People will tell you that you're "weird" or "weird."
There were times when I thought, ``I have to be addicted to my smartphone because everyone else is addicted to it,'' but I realized that for the sake of my mental health, I had to quit using my smartphone.
I was worried, but I decided to switch from my smartphone to a dumbphone (flip phone).
Mental health is very comfortable. It gives you peace of mind.
I'm glad I chose dumbphone.
If I had continued to use my smartphone, it would have become useless. It's horrifying.
I know the fear of smartphone addiction. I also know the importance of digital detox and the benefits of dumbphone.
However, ``smartphone addiction'' is still not considered a problem.
It is disrespected.
That's very scary.
So I want the world to know more about this.
So I wrote a book.
But for now, only the Japanese version is available.
Smartphone addiction is a global problem!
One of my goals is to publish an English version.
I would also like to publish a Chinese version, French, Italian, and German.
I would be happy if you were interested in this book.
I'm sorry, my English is not good
There is no English version of my book, but there are English translations of articles I wrote for Japanese newspapers, and English articles I wrote for the Japan Times, a Japanese English newspaper.
Check them out.
