    Has anyone tried experiencing a day without the use of the internet in any form lately? How did it feel?

    A day without the internet is hard o, very very hard and can be unbearable. Just recently whatapp and Facebook stopped for some hours it's was like all hell has been released. Many does a lot on the internet 24hours so it's difficult for one to be without internet for a day.

    I think the worst part is that you spend time thinking of what you could be doing if you had internet. However, if you distract yourself and don't think about it then the day goes by pretty quickly and can actually be quite relaxing,

    Replies on this post show how the internet has become an integral part of our lives and we can't imagine a day without the internet. The reason behind this is we stopped socializing in real life and happy seeing people on a 6-inch screen dancing on songs on TikTok.

    To enjoy the day without the internet you should meet people in real life, spend time with family members, go for a hike, spend time with nature and then see the difference, believe me looking at mountains in real life is much more beautiful and satisfying than watching on an Instagram reel.

    Hey mlochless. This is a terrifying thought to go without internet. When I was younger we didn't have it, and now I can't imagine living without it.

    I specifically remember a trip deep into the mountains where the internet and cell service were completely nonexistent. It made me feel significant anxiety, almost like a disaster was about to happen since I wouldn't be able to call for help. And it drove me crazy that I couldn't check social media throughout the day. I also couldn't do any binge-watching of my television shows. It really brought it into perspective how heavily I rely on internet now.

    I have experienced a number of times mostly at home due to lack of electric power. I was bored. Nothing to keep me busy and the chats I am used to doing were no more. That is when I felt the impact of the internet in my life.

    Honestly, I don't know how I would survive a day without the internet. How would I even pay bills without the internet? It would suck big time to not have internet for a day. I would be missing out on money because I work from home and plus my Roku player runs off my internet which means NO TV (the kids would have a fit).

    I had to spend the weekend without internet at the end of February. It wasn't THAT bad at first, but by Monday I was ready to have it back. I make games while watching Youtube videos in the background, but sometimes pay more attention to Youtube than to whatever I'm working on. But without internet, I ended up practically finishing the game. It was especially noticeable after going to bed since I always watch Tiktok on my phone. The only thing I had was an offline music player. The whole weekend had me thinking about how much we rely on the internet for things like entertainment. It wasn't that big a deal for me, but I know how many people who would barely survive.
