Do you feel better without the internet?

Sometimes I took breaks and I wasn't online so often. I noticed some good changes. My knees weren't so painful, my eyes didn't hurt so much. I think we can feel better without the internet. But I have to spend a lot of time online because I need money. Sometimes when I complete tasks I have headaches. Do you feel better or worse without the internet? Do you also take breaks?

@Moon24 Maybe you can find a job in May. Do the jobs from your country pay you enough? Here people earn $300 in a month. We can't pay even the rent.

Mine too. I can only earn online. If I would have a job I would be online because I would like to earn some extra money. Can you give up completely on the internet? If you would have a job?

@dya80dya I could give up the internet if I had a good paid job. During lockdown, I think it's harder to find a job here. Transportation will be released next week. It would be nice to find a job in May.

I do give lots of things on the internet a miss now and then. But I need the internet. Its crucial for me. I certainly am glad of the internet at the moment. Life without the internet just now would be really boring.

But when you take a break don't you feel better? I also need the internet, but I need breaks. Or maybe you don't spend too many hours online.

I think perhaps I will feel nervous when I don't have the internet. I think I depend on it so much already.

I would have said yes before this lockdown but we need it because we are limiting in what we can do for fun and entertainment.

@dya80dya I need the internet. I guess you found your ways to stay off of it and not on so much that your knees are not painful and your eyes not hurting. I take breaks when I have to but I need the internet to check things out and work online.

I think this is normal. Sometimes we need to live more in the present moment instead of being online all the time.

I think I spent too many hours online. I need to take breaks more often. But I agree with you, the internet is very useful. It can help us a lot. But we also need breaks.

@dya80dya Of course you need a break from the computer but you picked a bad time, is not good now at the end of the month, because of the balance

I also use Youtube a lot. But when I am taking a break I feel better. Sometimes it's better to live in the present moment instead of living online. I am addicted to the internet, but breaks help me. I can't stay too much time without being online.
