Ways to tell them apart:

Phase refers to a stage in a process, often indicating a specific point or period in time.
Faze describes a feeling of being disturbed or unsettled emotionally.
Remember that phase can be linked to physical or temporal stages, like the phases of the moon.
Faze, on the other hand, is often used in contexts involving emotions or reactions, particularly where someone is not disturbed.
Phase contains an h, which you can associate with history or progress, suggesting a timeline.
