i spend too much time on this thing too soo dont feel bad but it can harm ur eyes

Answer 2

Well it can harm you in small ways and for some in huge ways. Problem with spending too much time on the computer is you get too used to entertaining yourself that way ( like people who watch tv all day ) and you slowly find you have no interest in anything else. Just make balance...Give yourself time limits on the computer and make sure you have completed ALL your daily tasks! If you play games etc don't play them for 8 hours straight...Play for 30 minutes and maybe again later or another day. Don't let the computer suck you in I know TONS of people who just sit on it all day...Actually sooo many people do that. Waste of life!

Answer 3

wel...your probably not on it too much...but you are becoming addicted...you need to find another way to entertain urself!

Answer 4

Too much would be 4-5 hours at a stretch. Sitting at the computer all day doesn't make everyone obese. You could have good metabolism. Just letting you know. Being online too much can strain your eyes.

Answer 5

Compare your profile with mine. I DO spend too much time on this thing.

Answer 6

Not really it is relatively harmless, if you are not sitting correctly it can damage your neck and back if you are not sitting correctly. Also, you can possibly strain your eyes which can give you a head ache (immediate effect) and worsen your vision over a long period of time. But you have not too much to worry about.

Answer 7

just make sure you can find other ways of amusing urself

and DONT get addicted!!!

Answer 8

I don't think you are spending too much time. Maybe I do but that's because my parents are lazy. I can't go outside because they are scared someone might kidnapp or my dad may have to go to jail because of some boy. I can't drive yet. All I can do is either skate on the floor (my parents don't like that...), watch TV, or computer.

Answer 9

I'm not going to say you spend too much on the computer, but I do know it can be addictive and so if you continue to do physical activities, read and socialize as well, you will keep balanced.

Answer 10

well...as long as your getting your exercise and it sounds like you are.. then no.. you're fine
