14. Addiction to Technology?
The popularity of the internet continues to grow because of the many ways users can interact, be entertained, informed, contacted, and occupied. Users connect through virtual worlds, blogs, games, subscription services and social networking sites. Technology gives users the ability to stay connected and contactable 24 hours a day.
However, being connected 24 hours can lead to excessive internet use, which can have a negative impact on the well-being of the user and his/her friends and family.
Do you show signs of possible excessive technology use? Circle “Yes” or “No” for each of the following questions (and be honest!). Are you…
- experiencing a decline in work/study performance as a result of time spent online? Yes No
- feeling tired as a result of late night online activity? Yes No
- missing meals or eating while online so that you can stay connected? Yes No
- lying awake at night with your mind on what’s happening online or waking up in the middle of the night to check online updates and messages (including text messages)? Yes No
- using your smart phone at inappropriate times and places such as in a movie theater or while driving? Yes No
- misleading family members about the extent of time spent on the internet? Yes No
- preferring to spend time online rather than with your family and friends? Yes No
- spending time on the internet because it’s more fun than the ‘real’ world? Yes No
- unsuccessfully trying to cut back on internet use (including social media, gaming, etc.)? Yes No
Answering yes to more than a few of these questions may mean there is a potential problem with excessive internet use. Left unchecked, this can have a negative impact on your overall well-being, relationships, and may also affect work/study performance.
It is important to strike a balance between online and offline activity!
Reflect on the previous questions and take an honest look at the amount of time you spend on electronic devices (smart phone, laptop, tablet, etc.). Discuss how you feel this affects the quality of your life (including your relationships, self-esteem, mood, time management, etc.), and whether or not this interferes with a “healthy” balance in your life. Your total response should be at least 75 words in length.
