We are addicted to so many things in life, we can't say that we are the person who never addicted to anyone, it could be of anything like sometimes drugs, coffee, tea, social media and sometimes we're addicted to someone that we feel like if we're not getting this then something happens to us. Addiction can be our choice at that time but it's in our control too.
In my opinion Addiction is really our own choice which our heart feels good to do certain things in life. It's totally our choice because we do it and we can't stop it or do it if someone told us to do it or not do it until we don't want to stop it, until we don't want to get rid of it. It's not something which we do because of someone else because we do it as we love to do it.
Nowadays many adult's are so much addicted to social media like they're addicted to scrolling reels on the social media although it doesn't have any good effects on us which can be beneficial to us but still they watch it and waste their time on social media without focusing on other things. If you use something and it'll not effects your other routine activities then it's not addicted because you've control and you can have a balance on your addiction too.
There was a time when I was so much addicted to game's, online games or offline games, i was so much addicted that if I've ten minutes to hold my mobile phone then I just go to open the game and play it, i was so addicted to level up, to gather more coins although they never real coins or money but i was addicted. It's been three years since i stop it. It was my choice to play these games and entertain myself and keep busy my mind in Playing games as i was thinking that playing game are good because they can keep active our mind.
But then i noticed that playing game's are ok but playing in such a way that everytime I'm here to play and i don't do other things on mobile and just play the games, this wasn't good and i thought to stop that addiction, it wasn't easy to stop those games because it was the only thing that i was doing. I even bought that game box for video game's and connect it with laptop and play the flights, battle or other game's.
I was having 732 game's in my laptop which i can play offline and for online games i never counted, and at the end i feel my inner voice that it's not a good stage. So I started to avoid and i still remember how i get rid of it but then i never even a download a single game but here I'm again in splinter lands lol but i promise myself that I'll play it for just entertainment and not start to waste my time and it's been a month and things are in my control.
Addiction can be worse if we don't feel that we should stop it and it'll really have worse effects on our minds and on our daily life but believe me we can control it although it is difficult but it's not difficult, obviously at starting you'll feel like you're losing something precious but finally you'll feel like you're doing good and sometimes you need your family but the most important thing which help you is to do something else at that time and then things will be in your control because you'll have to manage a balance between these things.
That's all for today and it's my entry in this week hive learner contest in #hl-exclusive for the topic of #hl-w229e1.
