When Online Series Become the Whole World
I don't know what's going on right now but I'm really addicted to online series Every day after work or school the first thing I want to do is not eat not take a shower and even less do homework or finish up my pending work It's to open the app to ดูซีรี่ย์ออนไลน์ from a website with a lot of visitors like series-888 and immediately press to watch the next episode of the story that I left off on Sometimes I tell myself just one more episode is enough but in the end I wake up at 3 am with a slight feeling of guilt and dark circles under my eyes The scary thing about being addicted to online series isn't just about time but also the emotions that are fully absorbed The characters start to become close friends the plot starts to become real life and the world on the screen starts to replace the outside world I start refusing to meet up with friends because I'm tired even though the truth is that I stay up late because I watch series all night Sometimes I laugh at myself too Whenever I meet someone who talks about what I'm watching I immediately get excited and review it without anyone asking The excitement of talking about the online series I like is many times greater than the fatigue from not sleeping It also makes us realize that we're not the only ones watching There are many people in this world who are addicted to the same thing One thing that online series give us besides entertainment is a short escape from reality On days when we are tired or feel unmotivated watching a fun series is like a temporary brain break We can laugh cry and get involved in something without having to take responsibility or make decisions We just have to be viewers who have the right to be involved wholeheartedly It is not strange that many people including us use online series as a tool to relieve stress However if we are not careful it can also become a trap that pulls us away from our real-life duties Work that should be completed ends up having to be postponed Letting go to finish this season is the most common excuse used and it always works for us Even though we know that we spend too much time on online series we still can't stop because various platforms are diligently releasing new stories for us to watch all the time Some stories have ended while others are still waiting We have become marathon runners on a field of never-ending stories Some days we try to decide that today we won't watch anymore but just seeing the Next Episode button that pops up automatically makes us give in every time The system understands us too much It seems that we are ready to give up everything to watch the stories of people on the screen Of course that doesn't mean that online series are bad because they also teach us many things It opens new perspectives especially when watching series from abroad We absorb cultures languages and ideas that are different from ours It is fun that is also embedded with learning without realizing it We just have to know how to balance it Sometimes we can set a time to watch in advance or reward ourselves after work before watching This way we won’t accidentally get so addicted that our real life will be ruined Online series are like love If we know how to love properly we will be happy But if we get too obsessed it will definitely hurt I admit that I am very obsessed these days but at least I am still aware of it I hope that one day I will be able to find a good balance between the world on screen and the real world
