On a scale of 1 to 100, how addicted are you to the internet? (1 is least addicted, 100 is basically drug addiction) How would you cope without the internet?
I'm personally like 70% addicted. If the internet shuts down, I'm gonna have withdrawl symptoms.
People don't go to public places to hang out anymore, so we're dependent on the internet for that these days. Does it mean addiction? Not at all. It's similar to drug addiction, if you're in good health and good company, time flies when you're sober. When you're sitting by yourself in a small room, you're dependent on time accelerating media devices. For me, meth accelerates time in a similar fashion, and I can spend hours sitting in a room looking out the window, no urge to look at memes in chat rooms. Meth is easier to stop for me because of harsher side effects.
