How to understand that you have become addicted to social networks: a psychologist named the main signs
Social networks have long become a part of modern people's lives, and, what is important, a rather significant part.
Agree: after meeting a new person, you probably want to find his profile on a social network to learn more about him.
Isn't this a sign of addiction?
If you doubt whether you have an addiction to social networks, use the advice of psychologist Diana Lobanova: she named three main signs.
According to the specialist, prolonged exposure to social networks reduces a person’s concentration and leads to addiction.
This means that he acquires an obsessive need to carry out some activity – in this case, related to spending time on the Internet, namely on social networks.
But even millions of subscribers and friends do not save from the feeling of loneliness - a psychologist said that people began to feel much more lonely than before.
And although there are many signs of addiction, you can focus on the main ones, which include obsessive repeated visits to the Internet, irritation, constant online status and refusal to communicate in reality.
Sometimes this behavior may be accompanied by refusal to eat or systematically irregular meals.
