This is a pretty salient point to bring up. I consider myself a workaholic because work/project tend to occupy an excessive amount of my energy and attention, to the point of getting out of hand, and because I am self-aware of a tendency to sublimate or mask-over personal/emotional issues by making myself overly busy.
I also know the feeling of being generally strung-out online. That doesn’t happen to me too much these days as the process of work has taken a lot of the fun out of the internet, which is sort of a bummer. The quality and quantity of my online socializing has been in decline for some time.
