Is instant messaging ruining your life?

Asked by Shippy (10015points) January 9th, 2013

As I type, I can see my phone flashing in the corner of my eye. There are emails to be read, messages, from various types of message systems, texts and I can’t recall what else. Plus with some if I don’t reply quick enough I get a barrage of insults.

My cell phone is now on silent and has been for a while. Which made me miss a very important call recently.

What kinds of boundaries do you put up regards your phone? Is it switched off for a certain time? Or at a certain time. Do you enjoy the constant dialogue that cell phones can demand?

Personally mine will die by strangulation soon.

Although I will be honest if it is my purpose it is serving, it’s not so bad!!
