10 Clear signs you’re addicted to social media – See this now! (With Pics)

7. It’s Having A Negative Impact

If you notice your performance at work is in a downward spiral or your grades at school are slipping, you may have an addiction to social media. If your work environment is really laid back, you might be able to check your phone or your social media accounts on your work computer without anybody getting upset about it. While this type of environment can sometimes help worker productivity, a social media addiction can really take over and make it hard to even think about working. Imagine teenagers at home trying to do their homework when their cell phone is sitting right next to them, it just doesn’t make for a good combination. Parents who won’t let their kids use their phone while doing homework aren’t doing them a favour.
