Sure, everyone likes a little light here and there, but is your love of the bright stuff crossing the threshold into addiction? Here are 6 signs you’re addicted to light.
1. You can’t enjoy nature at night without bringing a flashlight
Are you walking in the dark woods at night because you love it, or only because it’s an excuse to use a flashlight? That’s a question you need to ask yourself when trying to determine if your love affair with light is becoming a serious problem. Next time you head out at night down a remote trail under a moonless sky, try leaving the flashlight behind. If you find yourself thinking more about how you wished you had some form of light that you are enjoying the hike, you might have a light addiction, and you might want to consider getting help.
2. You turn on the lights every time you walk into the bathroom
If you find yourself flipping the light switch on in the bathroom seconds after you lock the door behind you, it might be time to take a break from light for a bit. Sure, it’s nice to be able to see what you’re doing while you’re going to the bathroom, but it’s not worth a potentially debilitating addiction that could cost you friends and family as you go to further and further lengths to seek out light. Ask yourself how you would look if you were watching yourself on a hidden camera walking into a bathroom and immediately slapping that toggle switch up to get some of that big L. If what you’re picturing disturbs you, seek help.
3. You keep your eyes wide open most of the time
Eyelids have plenty of positions in between fully closed and wide open. If you find yourself keeping them open as wide as you can all day, every day, you might want to consider what you’re doing to your body by letting all of that light into your pupils. Try weaning yourself off of having them fully open by gradually shutting them a little more each day until you’re able to go a full day with your eyes completely shut. It’s important to keep your relationship with light healthy and balanced. Read More…
