Technology is the only thing that got me through a very dark and lonely time in my life. It should not completely replace physical interaction, but it has been a huge positive for me. It hasn't given me social problems. It's helped me cope with them.

Say is assuming that because you can't socialize online that you'd be forced to socialize in person but ignoring the fact that more likely you'd just not socialize at all.
It's not as if shut-ins are an internet or new age phenomenon.


Dready, technology is damaging to people in that sense. You can make good use of it, but most people undergoing depression make the internet their home. A place where they will never physically even shake hands with someone. A place where you won't ever say "Bless you" when they sneeze because it goes unheard.

Everyone hiding behind the screens makes them more vocal in a text sense because there is no face to those words and there's a sense of "safety" with it.

Living life online, you miss out enjoying life's greatest moments. Overcoming fears is one awesome one. Going to the beach is something. Vacationing to locations far away to sightsee. Sure, you can do both, but technology is trying to remove motivation towards getting out there and doing so. Soon, virtual reality will be a more universal thing and no one will want to leave practically ever.

Mark my words. In the future, services like blue apron, peapod and all those other food delivery places will be big. Maybe not so much as to causing supermarkets to shut down, but people are just going to get fatter, lazier, more fearful, more anxious, more unable to do practically anything because they were born into an era where technology does it ALL for you.

That will leave humans with nothing. Jobs will be automaton. No one will leave houses.... and the more we press technology on, the more younger generations will adapt to having these so-called "benefits" in life. Just think about it for a minute. It's not unreasonable to think that far in advance. It might not be too too soon, but it will be the future, even if 100-1000 years from now.

It is a terrifying future.
