Low Dopamine Week

Design a low-dopamine week you will not quit by Tuesday.

Keep the useful parts of your digital life while adding friction, replacement, and recovery where the loop is strongest.

Pick the loop, add friction, and choose what the urge becomes instead.

CoachGPT keeps triggers, app rules, bedtime risk, and replacement routines in one detox path.

Step by step

Practical actions

6 useful tools

Clear goal

Built for this moment

7-day reset

Turn the first agreement into a week your family can practice.

Start with the hardest screen moment, create a calmer plan, then use the next steps to review what happened instead of starting the same argument again.

Start the 7-Day Reset

Day 1

Name the conflict pattern

Day 2

Write the first parent line

Day 3

Make the screen rule visible

Day 4

Plan the homework or bedtime boundary

Day 5

Choose a consequence and repair move

Day 6-7

Review, adjust, and keep the agreement

Start with one output

The first step creates something concrete enough to copy, share, save, or improve in the next tool.

Continue without restarting

Each step points to the next useful move, so a single visit can become a short working session.

Useful to send to someone

Share the path with a coach, client, partner, parent group, or teammate when this is the problem they have today.

Where it helps

A short path for a specific moment.

The phone loop is costing focus, sleep, mood, or time, but vague promises to use it less have not changed the trigger.

Map the loop, set one concrete app or phone boundary, and replace the urge with a realistic routine you can test this week.

1

Map the loop

Find the cue, feeling, time of day, app, and payoff that make the scroll start before you notice it.

Map the trigger
2

Set the boundary

Choose one phone, app, site, notification, or bedtime rule that adds friction at the real trigger point.

Set one rule
3

Replace the pull

Give the urge somewhere better to go with a cue-routine-reward loop and one focus ritual for the week.
