Is he a bit stuck in this teenage behaviour?

[Anonymous]

My brother is 24 years old. He is no longer a teenager. But he's on his phone 0-24 chatting. Constantly with someone. When he's traveling, eating, working, exercising, he's always doing that. I told him that's not good. He's missing out on life and it's damaging to him to be online so much.

Sure but it´s kind of normal nowadays it´s something many guys do because the online world is way more pleasuring than an outside world where many of us guys don´t have many friends or reasons to be.
Yes it´s damaging but it gives guys something that they don´t feel they have in real life and that is a purpose to be.
Like many guys don´t know who they could be and they don´t try because they get their pleasure from the online world.
It´s way easier to be one of the best players in a video game than workout and look like athletic.
I can tell you that because I´m 27 and not significantly different. We´re a generation of guys floating around following the common definition of insanity doing the same thing every day and expect change of it.
It sounds like a pirty-party but it´s not. It´s our life and because we´re stuck we go the same way through hence it´s no sight of opportunities to change that.

That’s pretty normal for society nowadays. Most peoples lives are online. Yes social media and screen time is toxic, and one’s life shouldn’t revolve around their phones 24/7. But at the same time it does. Alarms, keeping in contact with friends and family, dating sites, photos, schedule planners etc.. our lives are digital. As I’ve gotten older I’ve learned to balance my screen time and normal life activities by exploring more into my hobbies. So maybe your brother needs some hobbies or just to grow up and eventually find that balance.

Why are you feeding his degradation?
