I call it “bad habit bingeing”

Basically, instead of trying to control my bad habits/parts of my personality I don’t like, I go out of my way to turn them ALL up to 11 at once.

The idea is that I amp up my bad habits to the point where either 1) I get sick of doing them and will naturally quit OR 2) become such a huge hinderance in my life that I’ll have no choice but to get rid of them.

Kind of like putting more and more power into a lightbulb until it explodes.

I did something similar to give up video games a few years ago, but I’m wondering if it could be applied to other things as well.

Has anyone here done something like this before? If so, how did it go?
