Is it possible to be addicted to the news?

even though it’s not a bad thing?
I’m asking because my sis reads it all day and night. Sometimes i see her refreshing a page constantly to wait for updates on stories… she’s not a writer or anything she just reads the news all day

  • Well yeah of course. You can be addicted to anything. I don’t think its a problem to always want to know what’s going on in the world and such.

    But most of the time what you read or see isn’t the full story anyways. So I think its something like Facebook, with people who check it all the time. After a while it loses its magic. After a while it gets old and you move on to something else. ^^

  • You can be addicted to anything that makes you happy. When you are happy your brain releases Dopemine. Since your body connects what makes you happy, say its the news, with being happy, your body wants you to do that act because your body wants to be happy.

  • Boredom leads to addictions, so yes it’s possible to be addicted to the news.

  • She will get over that, don’t worry. Just warn her that whatever is in the news is never the whole truth.

  • Anything that fulfills a need can be addictive.

  • she’s a updater n may be little addict in being updated
