Like the Beard said, its an Addiction. Why do you think people use to have $1000.00 + pay to play bills.
Many people use it to simply feel better about their life. Are you one of those, who get on and when you see someone having problems, you actually feel better about yourself? Are you one of those who get online and go to Threads or others Accounts / pages to dislike or disagree with them? If so you are using it to feel better about your life. I have told people this for years. Get off social media part of the net for 1 month just a simple month and see if you do not see an improvement in how you feel.
If you feel better after that month, you know you had/have a problem and its called your life. Fix your life because you are living a fake one online that is dragging you down.
