Socialbesitas is nothing more than an addiction to Social Media. Most people check facebook, snapchat, twitter, Instagram en whatsapp several times a day. On an average daily basis we pick up our phone for almost 60 times to check. This is actually a big problem. Some scientists even think that this generation will get early dementia out of this behavior.
Social pressure
- I need to know what others do
- People need to know what I do
- I need to post fun photo’s and videos
- I cannot show that I am unhappy, I am a fun person!
- I need to show the world that I have a huge social life
- I need people to see what a nice person I am
In addition, this generation seems to suffer more than previous generations of psychological complains by expectations of others.
Because:
- Your head is always busy
- People are programmed to focus on one thing at a time
- It’s a myth that people can multitask
What does this mean
- You sleep less because you fell a sleep with your smartphone and wake up with it
- While using a smartphone you have a bad posture
- You cannot focus anymore because your head is too busy with others. (even when you’re in a meeting and your phone buzzes -> your 100% focus is gone)
- Because your head is always busy, your brain can’t gain new energy
- Eventually you can not handle things anymore; because it is simply too much
- No wonder some people suffer from physical complains
A solution
No wifi at home, so you can totally focus on other things around you? For things as steemit and email, just go the a local coffeeshop with wifi?
What solutions do you have?
Is it possible that there will be a part of society stop using social media, like some people become vegetarian and stop eating meat?
