You can’t seem to just get off it, the little time you are off you look forward to gettin on again. Of course this is different for people that make a living via the internet, but many just engage in mindless scrolling.
This can affect their offline lives and make them less productive.
Have you ever been in this situation?
 
The internet has become my world!! I use it for the difficult things and the simplest of things. I use it for entertainment, to stay connected to family, to watch videos, listen to music, the list is endless.
 
Same, I am definitely reliant on the Internet for most everything these days. It's my escape, so without it I don't know how I'd cope
 
Always, because I can sit in front of a computer 24/7 if I manage to keep myself busy on the internet. I could specifically post on forums and build codes for forums throughout the day because it is my primary pastime. I depend on the internet more for social interaction than speaking with others IRL. If I didn't have the internet at this point, I think I'd go insane.
 
I can be addicted to it, especially when I'm particularly focused on a task. It's important to find balance though, as I also have relationships with my friends and family to think about.

Same. I could live without it but having it adds entertainment to my life lol
 
I cannot say that I am addicted to it, since I am working online for more than a decade. I do not have a choice but to use it regularly. If I am not working online, I can live without it.
 
All of our stuff are now online, the system itself made it essential. We pay our meals with it, order stuff, chat with our family and friends..
