Over the years I've found that the time I spend on the computer has a
negative affect on my mental/emotional health. It seems to suck the
life out of life and impair my ability to function in the real world.
I've tried various things to counteract the problem, but the only
thing that really works is not getting on the computer, and that works
really well. I think part of the problem is caused by my processing
information, but I think part is due to radiation/glare from the
laptop screen. Has anyone dealt with this successfully? I'd love to
know how you did it.
