Delete Tiktok first, post your drafts if they're important to you, then log out of your account and delete the app. Make sure its very inconvenient for you to use social media/games to the point you're so lazy you'd rather do something else. Delete Instagram, make sure you can only access it through a computer, not your phone. Try buying a nice and easy book (like the Martian or something) so you ave something to do when you're bored. Carry it around everywhere

Try making the screen grey scale. Also put the charger far away from your bed. Temporary blocking apps like Forestry are also nice, start with small times (ten minutes, twenty minutes) and slowly work your way up. Most importantly... find something else to occupy your time that feels more substantial. What do you do on your phone? Doomscrolling social media? Addictions are most of the time less about the stuff that's addicting but about the fact that it fills some hole. In theory you could be on your phone all the time and feel great about it because what you do on there is vitally imporant and spiritually fulfilling (IDK like that BeMyEyes app where blind people take pictures and you describe whats in it for them). So think not about the phone but what you actually want to do instead and why you're not doing that.
