I’ve noticed YouTube specifically has become more addictive, I never used to be one to sit and scroll for long durations before but I often catch myself spending way too long on shorts now

Even people or older generations seem to be getting sucked in nowadays

      It’s not a diagnosis it’s encouragement to see someone about an issue you’ve expressed.

          There’s definitely negative psychological effects to having a skinner box in your hand at all times.
