How people deal with addiction to the social media

World Today

 

Many people are constantly using social media on their phones even during work hours. 

It’s an addiction that is by design, according to experts in Netlfix’s Documentary The Social Dilemma. 

After watching the documentary, some of them chose to turn off as many app notifications as possible because they didn’t want their phones controlling their lives.

But the addiction seems to grow stronger during the coronavirus pandemic. With fewer activities available, people are spending even more time staring at a screen.
