Do you realize how addicted you are to your electronics?

[PeppermintPatty]

Yes I realize how addicted I am to using the internet. It’s been my ‘go to’ place before and after I finish my day and sometimes in between. I’m now doing more reading to try and compensate and it’s working.

I think anything that makes us feel good can be addictive including alcohol, food, drinks, tobacco, cannabis, sugar, pop, tea, coffee, tv, internet, gaming, etc, etc

Awareness of my actions helps some. I try and bring more purpose to my real life and try not to get too hung up in my internet life.
It’s a balancing act trying to keep it all healthy but I think I do

No phone, no TV, no internet- a fate worse than death.

I've a clam shell cell phone, no cable, no apps, a chromebook with wifi. I am not lamenting my 'poverty'. Instead, happy to be spending my time doing something else.

Do I do what I choose most every day!

You got to be kidding me!
My day starts out with pets, pets food, pets water, pets and affection demanded, maybe deserved.
A life long bunch of trip hazards, treat seekers and affection deservers. .....
Am I a victim of my own decisions, I would rather say I chose to do what I do / did. haha .....
Only after that do I go online, check the phone messages etc. and delete, delete, delete, delete, delete ..........

My problem now is 'where do I plug in my USB chargers' after receiving more electronic 'stuff' for Christmas.
Looked around and seems every outlet has at least 1 usb charger connected.
Headphones, phone, tablet, watch, hand-vacuum, etc. and now I got to find spots for my new tablet and my new Hand Massager!
I put a battery back-up light bulb in every room incase the power goes out.
Researching which Portable Power Station Battery Generator to buy as a back-up for my gas generator for the house.

I am glad I'm not ADDICTED to my gadgets and lead a simple life...
