We are now at the verge of the generation where electronic gadgets most specifically cell phone or smartphones upgrades each and every month or so. They became so hi-tech now that they could do whatever a laptop or a computer can do. Humanity as though can’t survive without handling these kinds of stuffs. But as the saying goes “Everything should be put in moderation” because anything excessively done can be harmful physically, socially or mentally  for the individual and the rule applies to simply everything including the use of electronic gadgets. So what are the signs to identify and consider yourself as a tech maniac or addict:

·         You think everything has a touchscreen
·         You text more than you talk
·         You carry your charger everywhere (as in everywhere)
·         You can’t stop using abbreviation (you absolutely think that abbrvtn is convenient)
·         You get separation anxiety (with your phone)
·      You would be uncomfortable because you could not stay up-to-date with social media and online networks. (you panic if you're not updated)
·         You would feel weird because you would not know what to do.

why not try to unplug?

To add up if you find yourself reading this signs (or any identical articles) via smartphone or computer then you really are a tech addict. Using technology and more significantly upgrading or developing it is nothing harmful but being so attached to it to the point that its wasting your time and consuming your energy is something that will definitely harm you in the future.
