Comment on Instagram boss: 16 hours of daily use is not addiction
mrbutterscotch@feddit.org 1 day agoI’m sorry but did you even read my comment? As in the part where I explain there are multiple criterias that define an addiction?
But to take the numbers mentioned in the Post, yes, 16 hours of instagram use are an extremely strong indication of an addiction. If more criteria are fulfilled then it will definetely be diagnosed as an addiction.

Yes I read your comment. So if a man is compelled to murder two hobos a month and can’t break the habit, that would not be a strong indication of an addiction?

I mean I know you asked this as a kind of gotcha, but yes psychologists have long argued that seriel killing can be classified as a behavioral addiction. Ted Bundy himself said he felt addicted to killing.

It’s not a gotcha. It’s more of the Socratic method.

Lol ok. I guess that means you don’t have actual arguments or are just trying to be a troll.
Either way, have a good one.
