Do you check your phone before you even get out of bed? Scroll until your thumb aches? Feel phantom buzzes that aren’t even real?

You’re not broken—you’re just human in the age of glowing rectangles.

In I Can’t Put My Phone Down, Max Scrollman exposes the comedy and chaos of our digital obsession with brutal honesty and laugh-out-loud storytelling. From walking into lampposts mid-text to losing sleep over videos of squirrels building castles, Max doesn’t just confess—he gives you permission to laugh at your own scrolling disasters.

But this isn’t just stand-up comedy in book form. Woven between the jokes are real, practical strategies for reclaiming your time, attention, and peace of mind. No lectures. No guilt trips. Just small, doable fixes that actually work—because throwing your phone in a river isn’t realistic, but learning to live on your own terms is.

Inside you’ll discover:

• Why your brain treats notifications like slot machines, How to escape the endless scroll (without becoming a monk)
• The truth about phantom vibrations and “screen-time shame” reports
• Simple hacks for creating phone-free zones, better sleep, and real connection
• Why laughter might be the best productivity app you’ll ever download

If you’ve ever said “just five more minutes” and looked up two hours later, this book is for you. Equal parts comedy, confession, and crash course in digital self-defense, I Can’t Put My Phone Down will help you laugh at the madness—and finally take back control of your most valuable resource: your attention.

Put the phone down (just for a bit). Pick this up. Your future self will thank you.
