10 Signs You’re Probably Addicted To Your Smartphone (no 5 Will Amaze You) by Nobody: 2:22pm On Sep 20, 2015 |
You love your smartphone. It helps you get from point A to point B, it keeps your email readily accessible, and it helps you to stay connected to friends near and far. There’s no way something so awesome could be harmful, right? Wrong. Smartphone addiction is a real concern, especially as people become increasingly dependent on these gadgets to conduct daily activities. If you fear your devotion to your smartphone is bordering on addiction, here are 10 signs it might be time to seek help: 1. You text people who are in the same room as you. 2. Your phone goes everywhere with you — even the bathroom. 3. You can’t recite any of your loved ones’ phone numbers from memory. 4. You sleep with your phone. 5. You don’t know how to turn your phone off. 6. Your self-esteem is tied to how many notifications you get. 7. You see more through the photo app on your phone than the eyes in your head. 8. You panic if your phone is out of sight. 9. You’d rather be late than arrive without your phone. 10. You can’t stop peeking at the screen, even during a movie or your favorite TV show.

Smart phone addiction has been the order of the day.. But am not addicted sha... . Here are some questions to ask yourself to see if you may be addicted to your smartphone: Do you check your smartphone within an hour of waking up? Do you check your smartphone within an hour of going to sleep? Do you check your smartphone at times without any reason? Do you check your smartphone over 30 times per day? Do you have to check your smartphone the moment you receive a text message or email? Do you check and use your smartphone during face-to-face interactions? Do you feel the urge to text, call, or social network while driving? If you were asked to give up your smartphone for one week, could you do it? #Stop_Addiction.... It kills... 12 Likes 5 Shares |

Who remembers phone numbers nowadays? That has nothing to do with smartphones - people stopped dialling in regular numbers years ago. |
