So I downloaded and read a study about internet addiction, went online to check my results on the Internet Addiction Test and got 67 points which is a moderate internet addiction score.
Some parts of the study and some questions in the test talk about people who neglect their friends/partners to instead spend time talking to people online, but I have no friends or partner in the first place. Even though I was hopeful when I first started reading the study, this got me worried again.
If I stop using unnecessary applications that have a negative impact on my grades and health (e.g. Skype), what the hell do I have that I can go back to in real life? I'm in university and most people seem to be part of a friend group already, I don't want to bother putting myself out there for shit.
If I stop doing useless stuff online to feel good I'm basically left with nothing
how fucked am I
First look for a hobby. (think sport or instrument, whatever suits you best), join clubs, go out, whatever you think you could fill the time with. also get off 4chan this place makes you rot.
