Scenario

When phone anxiety creates conflict between partners

My partner gets anxious when they can't check their phone and I get anxious watching them check it constantly and we're in this weird loop where my reaction to their phone use makes them more defensive and more glued to it. We both know something's off but we can't talk about it without it becoming a fight.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people are caught in a feedback loop where one person's digital compulsion triggers the other's relationship anxiety, creating more of both.
