I usually spend (I wish I could say 'waste' without feeling so guilty) over 9 hours on the internet, sometimes I spend my whole day online. I know a lot of people who spend as much time as me online and unlike me, they feel fine. In their case, there are no consequences.
I haven't been able to acces the internet for a month, and during that time I have solved all the communication issues I had with my family and the usual arguments I had with them disappeared. Although I missed being online, I felt better in a weird, unusual way.
When I was able to access the internet again, I started feeling unusually angry and I started causing arguments in my family with no reason, without even intending to. I just felt somehow disconnected from the world.
I have 2 questions:
1. Do any of you feel like this when you're on?
2. What can I do to diminish this effect that the internet has over me without having to reduce my time online?
By the way, I'm 13, so I obviously don't have much of a life.
