Are you addicted?

May 31st, 2011

When it comes to addictions, one of the most common has to be Internet addiction. Is that any surprise to you? It shouldn’t be…most of us have our email accounts open on our computers while we’re at work, and after work we’re all connecting with each other via Facebook.

So in many ways, you could say that it’s impossible not to be involved in this somehow. After all, even if you weren’t involved in it, chances are that you’d struggle: how else would you communicate with people? (And please, no ridiculous answers like “using SMS” or “I’d call them on the phone”. What year are you living in, exactly?)

Here, then, are a few ways to get out of this rather deep hole – if you wish to.

1) Avoid staying on FB ten hours a day. Check it every so often, or connect it to an email address; that way you’ll be notified when a new message comes in, but you won’t be tempted to traipse around aimlessly looking at people’s profiles.

2) Remove the app from your iphone. Yes, I know it sounds drastic, but it’s the only option for some people – especially if their phone keeps beeping every ten seconds as they receive a new message or update…

And be under no illusions, this is a problem. If you can get into the habit of only using your iphone to Google things – like at a pub quiz when someone needs to know when British wheat was first grown, or something – then I think you’ll find you’ll be a much happier bunny.
