I ditched my smartphone for 12 months but it was a bad decision

• My iPhone stopped working a year ago and it gave me relief. 
• I started using a $30 Nokia phone instead, with no social media. 
• I'm going back to a smartphone because being the only one with a dumb phone is a nightmare. 

When my iPhone suddenly stopped working 12 months ago, my immediate reaction surprised me. There I was, out of the loop on social media, nearly impossible to contact, but instead of feeling nervous or overcome with FOMO, total and utter relief flooded my veins.
