Now I’m not going to lie, I like to check my Facebook 3 or 4 times daily, sure you n=know we all do it. It’s kind of scary how dependant some people are on the internet these days. Like I will admit checking my Facebook 3-4 times daily that’s starting to get bad, but what about people who check it every second moment. For some people this is a fad, for me it lasted about 2 months where I would check it about 6 times daily, but some people are out of control.
Those who are truly addicts don’t even realize it. For me I can separate from the computer fairly easy, at the same time who knows how long I could live without one? For me probably not long, I need it to do my work. I have been in classes where separation from a computer is mandatory, you may have access but you have to deny the temptation. I have noticed others without this practice are unable to separate from the machine for longer that stretches of ten minutes. It’s like smoking, people need their fill, for me this isn’t a big deal, usually. However people don’t realize that typing on keyboards is just as bad as talking when other people are presenting or talking. For me its even worse, its less direct. People’s realities tend to become skewed when in the presence of the computer. They believe they are in another world. Maybe it’s the fact they feel more comfortable on the computer, maybe we are just so conditioned to be working at such a high speed that are minds get bored and we need something to stimulate us?
