and if yes, have you ever put a serious effort on handling it? Share tips if you think it'll help. I imagine my days will get boring very quickly, and eventually would get back to the web...  |

Yes, but also sort of no.
I generally watch a movie a day. I do this, not so much because I'm addicted to movies, but rather because I have too much free time and not enough genuine work that I can enjoy. No proper friends either. And so the movies become my hobby. I watch too many to truly enjoy them, and should probably take a few weeks off to chill, so I can get back to... you know, enjoying them again.
But then I think "I'M ALREADY SO FAR BEHIND" and my FOMO gets out of control because I'm a year behind all of you. So in a sense, I do have an addiction because I can't imagine taking a few weeks off and focusing on something else - what will I do with my evenings!? - but I feel that if I chose anything else to spend my time on, I'd be fine.
I'm sure that's what a lot of addicts think, but eh, I actually feel that I'm somewhat sane on this one topic.

Oh very much so.......but we'll find out in about a month when I transition out of my job into my new gig........I mean my job is literally glancing at multiple screens - all day - tracking data tabulations, responding to emails and troubleshooting online
Aside from that, not so much but my personality is by any sane definition - addictive, possibly lethal.......I drink coffee at all hours of the day.....I can drink alcohol to a shocking extent......I don't sleep.....and that's not screen related.......I never slept......the job was perfect for me because of that really......
Like in about 4 weeks I wouldn't be surprised if I am so bored I just started playing golf all day and planting shrubbery in my yard ........and I hate both of those things very much .......
