Nomophobia

in Cent5 days ago

Technology has been a very great sort of our existence and ofcourse the impact and advance it has brought into our lives cannot be over emphasized.

Am not anti tech but at the same time, I can’t help but notice how addicted people are becoming to their phones. It’s rather a disturbing sight.

I read a post of someone on hive talking about his travel and visit to the train station and he attached a picture of people at the train station and done disturbing factor stood out and that’s the what am talking about.

Everyone in that picture, had their heads buried on their phones. I went to a particular place to meet with some friends. We were supposed to have a social gathering and as the early birds, it was supposed to be a time of meeting and greeting before the actual event starts.

On getting there, everyone has their heads buried on their phones. For a while I stood bewildered and was wondering what’s going on. On entrance I greeted everyone and some not so much absorbed one’s lifted their heads up to say hi and hot the heads back on the phone while some didn’t even lifted their heads from their phones.

Everyone was self absorbed. I thought for a while, we are so close yet so wide apart.

I enter the bus everyday and J see how people are literally are absorbed with their phones. Literally everyone have their heads buried on their phones.

Sometimes my friend comes to visit me or vice-Barca and we have our heads buried on our phones barely having any decent conversations.

Husbands and wives are in the same room but each with heads buried in the mobile device. I know some persons who cannot stay away from their phones for five minutes.

While addiction to the phone device may be understandable to some individuals who earn from their phone or work on their phones, which I believe should be checked too but what about those you don’t yet can’t keep their fingers or eyes off their phone.

You go to the kitchen with your phone, in the toilet you are with your phone. In the garden, living room and literally everywhere staring down the screen. Some even operate their phones while walking on the road.

Have you noticed how you panic anytime you run out of data? It’s like being literally cut off from the whole world. Have you checked you screen time lately?

Do we even know how much too much screen time does to our eyes? Are you addicted to your phone? Are you close but apart?

I know my wife loves it when I tickle her
She laughs while I'm tickling and is angry at me when I stop.
