Do You Ever Suffer from Internet Exhastion and Information Overload?

I do. My mind is heavily perfectionistic and cannot survive without order. Everything has to be labelled and filed, or I suffer anxiety. For that reason, I do not process information easily, and have to be careful what I take onboard, knowledge-wise. This may be the legacy of early compulsive curiosity about all things. My point though is that sometimes I get involved in long searches on the Net, with one subject leading to another, until I am overwhelmed by information overload. Do you suffer like this? Or can you pretty well ingest and process knowledge well?

I don't let myself get too involved in anything these days, I am at a stage I just want to plosd along and leave everything simple and be happy so to me searching and whatever on the internet to me is just fun, infact the computer for me is just fun, I won't let it wear me down, i too suffer from anxiety but not with the computer...
