For most of us, texting is like second nature. It's what we do, irrespective of whether we're alone or have company. We tell ourselves it's faster than calling and an easier way to stay connected over long distances. We compulsively check texts as soon as they've been received. But is it time to look up from the phone screen and take a break from messaging? Here are 10 telltale signs of being a Whatsapp addict.
You’ve lost track of how many Whatsapp groups you’re part of.
You’ve created most of them.
You look for updates even when you’re with friends or your significant other.
You compulsively forward the latest jokes, videos, photos and puzzles.
People around you often react like this.
You anxiously check your phone if your message has been read but not been replied to.
You change your profile picture every day.
You can carry on entire conversations in emoji.
It’s the last thing you see before you sleep.
And what you wake up to in the morning.
