Nowadays we all are getting addicted to screen. We are spending extra time in front of the screen. As a result of which we have to face physical and mental problems. So we all should not spend extra time in front of the screen. Stay away from it unless there is a lot of work.
In today's modern and advanced technology era, everyone has to sit in front of a screen at some point or another as all work is computer dependent and everyone uses various social media personally. I am currently employed in a job where all my work is computer-based so I have to sit in front of a screen during office hours and sit in front of my work when I come home. This causes mild pain in my neck and back, blurred vision at times, and moodiness at times. Even when going to sleep at night, the sleep is not completely clear.
In this world and age, financial freedom comes with a price of diligence and hardwork.
Many neglect their health because they are busy especially on screen doing their best to reach the top of their game.
Working full time on screens can lead to eye strain, poor posture, digital fatigue, and sleep disruption.
Manage it by taking regular breaks, adjusting ergonomics, using blue light filters, staying active, setting boundaries, practicing mindfulness, and staying hydrated. Balancing screen time with self-care is crucial for overall well-being.

Yes, I think I am spending a lot of time on my computer and phone screens. Now I must wear glasses when I work on my computer and look at my phone for too long. I do find myself using eye drops when they become red and dry. I also will reduce my computer brightness when my eyes start to hurt. I hope there is no long-term damage to those hours on my computer. It's concerning to think about the potential consequences of this lifestyle, especially considering the human-made nature of these devices and their impact on our health.
Well for me I know I usually Focus on my screen almost everyday but doesn't mean that I don't do other things apart from focusing on my screen and wanting to be at the top of the game. Bad posture anxiety and many other factors may be due to addiction. Addiction is the reason behind people falling to such problems. In what ever thing we do, we should apply caution by using precautions measures to enhance safety and protect ourselves for a better health, because good health is wealth.

We are in a modern world now and technology seems to have taken over as most people around the world stay glued to either their mobile phones and computers and other medium of accessing the Internet in other to gain information that would be helpful to mankind and since we are in a modern world now everything is going digital as we no longer have to be physical with everything we need as some things can just be done on the Internet without stress.
Statistics has shown that lots of people all over the world spent most of their time staying active with their phones and computers and this habit seems to be endangering our vision because the ray of light from our systems and computers tend to flash directly on our eyes thereby affecting the optical len but since we cant stop the habit of always looking at our devices all the time, it is advisable to either use glasses whenever we are staying for so long on the internet or rather go for an eye check from time to time to check our visibility and also if our lenses have been affected.
Sure,most of us do spend a lot of time on our screens think it is a normal norm nowadays we are in the digital era.The only scary part of this attitude is seeing kids doing the same thing don't think it is good for them at all kids have alot to learn away from the screens.
Nowadays I'm so busy in real life that i have very small time for screens , I have not even watched movies that I wanted because of lacking time .
so maybe 4-6 hours a week is how much I spent in screen nowadays.

I spend most of my time on screen. Like 12 plus hours a day daily on screen. Actually when i am not doing the basic necessities of life like sleeping, eating and some other personal stuff, then i am sitting at my laptop and eating my time.
Btw i am a developer and a blockchain enthusiast so i think my time at computer is justified as i have to take care of some freelancing stuff, then blockchain stuff, then my youtube channel stuff and then learning and exploring the new techs. So yeah, it seems justified to me.

Personally i don't, i spend most of my time at work, i don't really like to spend a lot of time on things that doesn't have any benefits, i just take my phone for calls, and to learn something good on bitcointalk or post something, otherwise i do prefer to live the real life and focus on my dreams
I'm not sure about others but I do spend a lot of time on screen. I think some days I spend more than 12 hours a day on screen while normally I spend around 5-8 hours on screen. I'm an avid reader and I do most of my reading on screen. Although, I own a kindle but I rarely use it to read books, I mostly read books and news on screen.
I watch so many helpful videos on daily basis and for those I also need to use the screen. I spend some good time on this forum and other forums that I use, and for those I also have to use the screen. I think life would be much difficult for me without using the screen, I do spend time with my family and friends but most of my time I'm using the screen either of my smartphone, or that of my monitor, or that of my laptop, and sometimes of my kindle.

@btc78, that's true. Even it is not longer related to our jobs, we're having screen times everywhere. With tablets, laptops, smartphones and any other devices.
We can't stop digitalization and the need to use the devices that will make us stare on the screen. I guess that it's all going to be on how responsible we are as users.
And about the limitation upon usage of it whether work related or not. But if it's about work, only our companies have the thing to say about it.

I am spending approximately 12 hours on screen, I am including a mobile phone as well as a laptop. The reason for this much use of both devices is that I am looking for and applying for scholarships and for that, I usually spend hours searching and filling up the application. Social media also take a major portion of my time because of the elections in my country. My average screen time over the past couple of years is 6-8 hours.
