Addiction, The Dark Side Of The Hive Socials

Hello Hivians, trust you're all doing well and your day is going as planned. I wish everyone here a happy week and the blessing attached to the week. *To the women in the house, I wish you all a happy international women's Day*

Today I wish to write about how addicted I have been to this platform.

Staying on this platform for sometime now Has been really good and educational. There are days I don't come online due to maybe network issues, insufficient data, or low battery. But whenever I visit the hive Blockchain I hardly leave the page as I come across interesting blogs to read, gain knowledge, upvote and comment. While going through someone's introductory post comments, I saw a comment advising her about the platform and how addicting it can be. She never lied when she said that because today I'm addicted to the platform and I love the addiction because of the knowledge I gain daily from hive social although it is somehow disturbing my daily activities as I no longer go out to mingle with friends again as long as my resource credit is enough to comment on post and my network is not having any issues.

The couple of days I have spent on this platform has improved my reading outside my field of study as I hardly read anything that is not related to my field of study.

The little space I got when I went to the kitchen, I had to take pictures with my cousin's children. I love them very well because they would always give joy when you need it 🥰🥰.

My addiction to hives has now improved me positively towards everyday activities. When I entered the platform I was like how will I cope here just reading people's blog, and articles but I'm now doing it without compromise or complaining about it. Most times I charge my phone to 100% and after a long time spent on this platform I would discover that my battery life is below 20%😂😂 and I would be like what will I do to ensure I charge my phone so I can come back to the platform. It's just all about doing what you know to ensure you get back here as soon as possible no matter how tough it looks.

I'm addicted to this platform and I don't know how to go about it again.

I just wish I can learn how to balance my daily activities so I would not miss any other opportunities outside hive social. My daily routine are like wake up in the morning, do my morning general body exercise, take my phone and then log in to my hive portal, start reading blogs and comment on them may be till around 10:30 am, go to the kitchen and prepare my breakfast, then come back to hive Blockchain till around 12 noon then take my bath. If my Resource Credit is still much available I have to sit again and start doing my normal on hive social. It's more like a daily routine unless I have network issues.

Should any day be gone and I didn't visit my hive account then that day is never complete. I'm now finding it difficult to carry my KDP business seriously as I now love Hive social very much.

Would be happy to hear from you in the comment section how you cope with your daily routine and still carry out your hive blogging.

Thank you for stopping by ☺️☺️☺️.

PS: all pictures were gotten from my Redmi10 c gallery.

Hive is indeed addictive, but we're adults, so balancing daily activity should not be difficult.

For future reference, this post would fit better in Self Improvement community. OCD community is for topics that don't fit in any other community and should be used when you don't find a niche community for your post.

Here's a guide I put together to help you learn about how communities work and why you should use them -> Communities Explained - Newbie Guide. I also put together a list of communities, which is not complete, there are much more communities on Hive, but it will help you get started.

Once you posted your post in the right community, you can then cross post it to OCD community. Here's a guide about cross posting.

Please don't delete any post with the purpose of reposting it in another community as that can be considered abuse. Leave this post here, you'll get it right next time.
