Watching You tube

When I woke up, it was already almost 7:00 o'clock in the morning. I went for a walk to Mercury Drugstore then Puregold in order to buy medicines and groceries, respectively. Walking is my mode of exercise. Then after that, I stayed at home doing house chores while watching You tube. After my chores, I continued watching different shows. This is really what I feared when I begin watching a show it will continue. Do you also experience watching You tube and almost could not stop watching?

Chinese movies, celebrity vlogs, etc.. I think I have no favorite really on the vloggers. I just watch whichever pops up. What I like most were those of Kris Aquino's vlogs, especially her food trips. 'There are those which I liked too but I only watched them then I found it monotonous thereafter.

Absolutely! Youtube has a magnetic effect in you and pulls you to go through the videos, one after the another and again and again. When you realize what has happened, hours would have passed. It used to happen to me while checking Facebook videos as well. It so easy to get caught and the with recommendations showing interesting content. But I am now keeping some control on such watching. It also looks like you had a good productive start to your day – getting your walking and completing your errands before relaxing with videos. Enjoy your day!

No, I don't experience that. I have a few favorite YouTubers that I watch and then I switch to reading a book after the dishes are done and I've finished cooking for the day. myLot usually takes the most time online and I try not to be here for more than an hour at a time. I hope you enjoy your day.

Yes, thank you I enjoyed my day. However, in the afternoon, I was hesitant to stop. I promised myself that I would have to control myself.

@pahak627 I stop being online because watching the monitor hurts my eyes. I have an eye disease so have to be careful. I'm sure you'll manage to control yourself if you give yourself enough time to make the change. Good luck!

Not really. I can watch a few videos and be fine. I don’t spend hours watching—one hour is my max.

That's good. I have to control myself next time so that I can be like you too.

omg, i do. but after feeling bored and feeling it's enough or when i have to eat or go to a toilet, i am glad i can step from the screen a bit. but, yes, it tends to be addictive

Yes, it really is. But chores are my priority, so I have to finish them first.

@pahak627 They don't help my ADHD at all that's for sure.

Lately, not really. I get bored quite easily, and YouTube mostly suggests me content about food and recipes. Sure, I’ve been trying cooking but I can’t be cooking all the time so I’m like experiencing an information overload with that specific niche.

I sometimes watch cooking and even tried them myself but I became bored with it. I watch it sometimes.
