Advice on general technology addiction 26 Apr 2015 15:19 #253120

Hi,

I've had an addiction to technology of all kinds since I can remember. I have known all along that it was unhealthy, but only recently have I tried to put myself back in control. I'm wondering if there's anyone out there that has had a problem of this sort, and what steps they have taken to work their way out of it.

Thanks!

Just addicted to technology ? like flying on a Boeing 787 ? or driving a Lexus model 2016 ? I dont see anything unhealthy with that. Can you specify ? Thank you brother.

Thanks for responding, I'll try to clarify a bit:

When I was younger, I couldn't pull myself away from video games and PDAs. Now, it's the latest smartphone, computer, Internet connectivity device ... Even if I don't have the device and have no intention of purchasing one, I'll spend hours at a time on the Internet studying how it works and potential usages. And by hours, I mean sometimes up to 2AM or later. (And if I do own it, I may spend hours and/or days fiddling around with it.)

I should probably add that spending time 'surfing the Internet' falls into a similar category for me - I'll spend lots of time just looking for something interesting that I can learn about next.
