20 Ways to Find Out If You're Suffering from Cell Phone Addiction

September 27, 2014 by alaahassan

Are you addicted to cell phones?

Here’s a list of things you do with your phone without even noticing you do them.  If you agree with 6 of them, you really need to evaluate your phone use or see a specialist.

  1. You turn back if you forget your phone at home
  2. You Have to look at your phone before going to sleep
  3. You text non stop to everyone on earth
  4. If you don’t get any app notifications, you feel like a loser
  5. You check apps multiple times even though there’s nothing to check on them
  6. If you’re battery is dying, you feel that you are running out of breath & you will die soon
  7. When having a meal with others, you check your phone at least 3 times (without it ever making a sound in the first place)
  8. You get irritated when someone bothers you during your phone time (ex..your kids, spouse or parent)
  9. You get pissed at everyone who tells you that you’re addicted to your phone
  10. You constantly think about calls or messages you may receive (and never end up getting)
  11. You choose to spend time on your phone for hours instead of calling a friend for 5 minutes
  12. You constantly forget your keys or wallet before leaving the house but you always have your phone in your hand
  13. You take cell phone breaks at work (and even while going to the bathroom)
  14. You hear your phone ringing but it never ran in the first place (sometimes you even feel it vibrating….you seriously have issues)
  15. When you drop your phone, you feel your heart breaking and hope to God that your screen is not shattered ( and you feel victorious when everything is alright)
  16. You secretly check your phone under the table as not to be rude (btw…that’s still rude…..who checks their crotch at a table???)
  17. You ask restaurants to charge your phone while eating a meal and then your mind constantly thinks about those missed notifications
  18. You interrupt people to show them a photo or video on your phone
  19. You can’t stop texting or checking Facebook while driving
  20. You hate going to places where there’s no WIFI

So are you addicted???
