Setting Limits on Personal Technology - Andrew Weil, M.D.

People need to develop a sense of moderation. I've known too many people that would be on-line Twittering or updating Facebook status 24/7 if they didn't need to sleep. It's actually "background" stress, this need to update information. It is NOT healthy and those doing it do not realize it.

My 21 yr old is texting 24/7, it drives me crazy, we can be @ a restaurant & he is either texting or leaving the table to take calls. I wish i could go back to the good ole days when people acually sat down & communicated looking face-to-face. My son keeps telling me I'm stuck in the 70's, it wasn't such a bad place to be..
