Another reason people waste so much of their lives uselessly on social is because of the need for the feeling of escapism, which the internet provides for us cheaply and quickly. In the past we have had reality Television shows that showed people lives lived by the rich, which poorer people wanted a taste of. The television shows were an escape from Truth be told, real life can be boring, or even a negative experience for some. So, the need for a quick vacation is always there. However, unlike leaving the city or your home, and exploring a new place, using the internet as a form of escapism can lead to being entrap, and missing out on reality itself. The reason that people feel the need for escapism could vary from person to person, but the main reasons are people being lonely, stressed from work, or even just regular depression. The internet and the apps used for entertainment are designed to trigger small dopamine releases when we are using them. For some of us it has become a way of escaping our problems in the real world. However, it doesn’t take much for a person with this habit to develop a problem.
