Managing Screen Time

As far as screen time management is concerned I tend not to pay too close of attention. I get the notifications on my MacBook. However, especially these days being in treatment I tend to do quite a bit less screen time than previously.

I’ve always been an avid electronics user so I usually don’t set limits or try to stay within limitations or goals. I try to keep my screen time productive if anything. I may game for 1 to 2 hours a day but the rest of the time that I’m on electronics it’s usually in communication or working on a project.

This week, I am working on a website for my friend and her business. So, I might set aside about an hour of game time a night. 6 hours or more a day is devoted to recovery. And then 3 or 4 hours are devoted to web development.

Overall I think I have a pretty healthy lifestyle around devices with all things considered. I am sure I could be out in nature more, going for walks or exercising. However, it hasn’t been my style since I was very young.

There have been times in my life in which I was glued to the screen. During those times I was primarily gaming. As I’ve grown older I’ve realized that I find much more enjoyment in being productive while online. I’m not sure how long that will last, but I am enjoying it while it’s the case.
