LOL. I had no social media experience but now I’m addicted to Steemit. I mostly enter photos in the various contests but can’t help checking every few minutes to see if I have votes or comments. My wife is not too happy about it.

ha ha!!!! Steem addiction is another one.......all to itself! Have an upvote! Tell her that you just made $15 for this comment, and she might be changing her mind soon enough!

please help from you make me bantukan your voice make my posting. I beg you if you do not @stellabelle mind my request to you, very many of my posts have no results but this time I trust you and dare to ask for help from you. thanks to you before

@mardha a day will come when your content will move the whole of steemit community.
Just follow the 7tricks mentioned in this post, believe me it ll surely pay one day. So cheer up bro 😎
and one more thing Is it that my eyes are confusing me or what?
@stellabelle almost, I Mean almost all the post with users I follow on steemit has your username tagged on their post and comment.
@stellabelle I like been original anywhere, from behind the scenes you are a celeb on steemit😎👍

@udezee ha ha ha .. thanks my cheerleaders

Thanks @stellabelle! If that doesn’t convert her, nothing will.

@stellabelle, heheheheheh, based on the current SBD rates, he's really made about $38 from that comment. That will definitely rouse his wife's interest lol

My husband was on steemit before me. Tell her, If you can't beat them join them. I joined him and now my account is worth a tiny bit more than his, and he is the one to tell me to put my phone down for five minutes. We have a bit of steemit rivalry. If my posts do better than his he is motivated to create something to outdo me. We have a codependant addiction, our kids are into it too. Our daughter just bought her first cryptokitty and is breeding imaginary cats with her dad, who doesn't even like cats.
You think you know someone. Of all the magical things that happen on steemit, him becoming obsessed with cyber cats was not on my radar of possibilities.

Ha ha. My wife has a Steemit account but doesn’t do much. Whenever I see her on Facebook, I always ask “how much will you make for that ‘like’?” At least she gives me an occasional upvote. ;-)

I had quitted facebook for quite some time. After I found steemit, I feel reborn and cannot help being addictive since then.

Yeah i understand, both hope she's getting some of the bucks you're making. That should reduce some of the bad feeling.

Ha ha. You’re right. I just need to buy her something with crypto :-D

@kunschj I hope to learn all cryptocurrency experiences you've gat as I'm humbly new to this😃
@stellabelle this is a great content with impact on all steemians....
For me you ll always have a five star rating 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟.
And I hope the whole community agrees with me.
Though I'm the latest steemian in the house, I hope the whole community visits my blog @udezee to enjoy great content 😎.

Wow! That's splufic

This is exactly the reason why I closed all my other social media for this , nothings the same as this and it’s literally my addiction

Instructions unclear, my phone is on the roof now.

Few corrections suggested:

STEP FIVE
Convert your STEEM to STEEM Power

STEP SIX
Check your smartphone every 5 minutes, throughout the day and night to see your voting power or STEEM POWER to m00n.

STEP SEVEN
Repeat this until you're catatonic, blind and steem-addicted :)

Ha ha! I went directly to crypto addiction. Can I have a step back and try also the drug addiction?

Thank you so much for the votes earlier today much appreciated- hope all is well - I’m getting back on it - stay Blessed

Oh yes, I assure you... This could work! For sure if you keep track of your assets with an app like blockfolio or a website like cryptocompare.com/portfolio... You will refresh coinmarketcap.com every 5 minutes, you will keep reading steemit posts, for sure with the tags 'cryptocurrency', 'blockchain', 'bitcoin', your partner will complain about the amount of hours you spend on writing steemit-posts... But afterwards he/she will be very happy while you buy him/her a gift with the money you made! Good luck!!!

Then your partner moves out....

My next move is convincing her to join Steemit!

Haha well thats a really short cut remedy xD

That gory eyes explosion...ahah glad we share addictions

Giphy is another issue, along with Twitter......I quit Facebook, but still have some horrid addicition to watching the Bitcoin fights on Twitter.

Doing this steps for 6 months. Now, I am Crypto addict:).

What have I been doing all this while on steemit? Why have I not visited your blog earlier before now? I would have learnt a lot more. Thanks @stellabelle. I will follow the above listed steps ASAP.

Please which crypto will you advice me to invest? I am quite new to the crypto world.

lol
I think the funniest and most real share I've ever seen. I've been active here for hours in the day. Everything you say is right.

very funny :) But I think it tells my life. :) Is it good ? bad? I DO NOT KNOW :)

No to drug addiction. Hooray! crypto money

this is funny but actually helpfull.. because what some of the addicts need is another addiction to get over their current destructive one.. u just forgot to tip them that they need to HODL as they check their smartphones every 5 mins untill they're catatonic and blind.

hahahah I absolutely agree with. I have experienced all of the steps you are wrote. I can not get rid of 7 steps. I am now a steem addict. When I'm not at the computer, I always get the phone. Now the sun for me steem. I'm the world around him spinning around :))))) Do you know there is a way to get rid of this addiction? cheers to steem @stellabelle

thats great . thanks for sahring.
i a,m already on social media.
and teemit is a great patform for me.
This is just the begining in crypto world.
lets get connected.
@qami

Wow,i love this article

post is very extraordinary surely you are smart in the problem of raising posts @Stellabelle

Then become addicted to a lifetime.And thank you @stellabelle every day. ha ha :)))

Hahaha.. Really you wrote a true story in nice way.. Steemit is an addiction.. I joined it a month before and i am adicted.. I did not earn enough to buy any cryptoes but community is so interesting that i can even spent hours constently.. Thanx for sharing

Amm, I actually do basically all of these steps lol... But instead of checking my smartphone ever 5 minutes, I do it every 30 seconds! :D

ha ha! My theory is that a lot of crypto day traders are addicts!

Haha. That might not even be a theory, it's probably a fact! LOL :D

ha ha! i love the Leo Gifs, cuz he's super hawt.

What a great post.. Thanks for sharing. Please upvote my post too 😊

Basically what happened to me. Basically just very addicted to a Steem though and just HODL to it :).

@stellabelle thanks for sharing this. i'm new to the crypto world, which crypto would recommend for a newbie like me.

you can't go wrong with Steem, $EOS and some others.....

The above and the following is not to be taken as financial advice. Do your own due diligence before any investment into the markets. Cryptos are loosely regulated in many territories, so look up your local laws regarding taxes and investing in them. EOS recently mooned and is on the downtrend, same for Steem. Past performance is no solid metric of future returns.

Before opening any account with an exchange make sure to look up issues with USDT (Tether) currently used by the top 7 of 10 exchanges by volume. Wash trading is illegal in regulated markets but it is speculated by many that wash trading is an allowed practice on many exchanges. Many exchanges are currently under fire for allegations of insider trading and pump and dumps. The types of information disseminated and how they are spread on cryptos that are widely flung about by large holders to increase their profits would be highly illegal in existing regulated markets.

Don't spend money you can't afford to lose trading in any investment scheme. Determining your own risk profile is one of the hardest things for new investors and impossible to test until you've been a seasoned trader. The vast majority of day-traders get fried within a year.

It still remains uncertain whether all of the paper gains made in crypto will be allowed to cash out at any point in the future. The net inflows of money do not match the marketcaps of crypto and liquidity is uncertain and not audited at most exchanges. Exchanges appear liquid until the moment they aren't. Don't get Mt. Gox'd. If you don't know what Mt. Gox is then don't trade until you know what it is and how it played out.

Bitcoin itself has been subject to giant market crashes where it's lost ~90% of its value in a matter of days. If you aren't ready for exposure to that kind of volatility then crypto trading is not for you.

The pattern is that in periods of extreme volatility many exchanges have been unable to trade certain coins or all coins, and whether intentional or not these closures of trading during important times in the market should be an indicator to potential investors that caution should be used considering we have not yet seen a repeat of the level of correction seen in the past.

If you suffer from immense FOMO and truly want to become a zombie-like, catatonic entity who is fixated on daily price movements of the latest shitcoin, memes and shills incessantly on every social media platform they have access to every time they see a double digit upward price movement, and then suddenly stops talking about cryptos at all when they go bust, then crypto is for you.

And remember, everyone looks like a fucking genius in a bull market, and the bid bots have been very efficient to this point in making general prices go up, but new tether haven't been printed in a while and the price has remained lower since then, so draw your own conclusions.

everyone looks like a fucking genius in a bull market

Also, Bitcoin Cash and Dash work well for e-commerce, but I would advise you to do research before you do anything else. Make your own decisions, learn, and don't invest what you cannot afford to lose. Do things small first, learning all the way.

Thank you so much

This sounds so simple! 😁

That's basically what I do, except step two. Might start doing step 2 as well :)

STEP SEVEN
Repeat this step until you're catatonic and blind.

Lmao. I did not see this coming.. but then again.. how can i? I am already blind :D

me too. my vision is going.....blind soon.

Waaaw very interesting,
This will further facilitate the users.
Thanks for sharing @stellabelle

Thanks you so much dear sharing informative and valuable post..

OMG! nice post
Thanks @stellabelle
Have a nice day

Everybody needs a healthy addiction.

You told me how nice.I'm talking about you now i'm addicted :)

Lol.. I wish it Is as easy as d steps u just gave.. Converting my Steem to any crypto of my choice has been d only challenge I've had so far.. I sell my Steem to fellow Nigerians to get d equivalent in my account but switching it to other cryptocurrency hasnt really gone well so far for me..

You told me everything I've been living in 25 days.
Cheers My Queen :)))

ha ha, it's what binds us all.....we've never had this opportunity in our entire lives.

@stellabelle Yes you are so right.I was not interested in crypto money until I signed up on this site.But I am very interested in all of krypto money now.If I had started 1 year ago, I would have been a stockbroker. :))

hahaha yes... I've been addicted to cryptocurrencies since I've known it existed. I dedicate at least 8 hours of my day to trading and publishing the latest news on my Steemit website. This is really my addiction, and I love it...

Hilarious!

That's pretty funny, but I can also see how true it might be of quite a few people in this community.

I presume you are planning a follow-up post in which counseling and a 12-step program will be offered?

Bright Blessings to you!

I'm addicted to Steemit and I appreciate your 7 steps :D
The first thing I do in the morning before drinking coffee is to check my account. All the best for you!

That gif is a pretty good representation of most crypto enthusiasts, I know my eyes are almost falling out 😵

You're on to something here! I'm not a rehab expert but I do know that environment matters a lot. If someone is suffering, the steemit community can be used to find more life enhancing things to focus on. Thanks for the share! Hopefully it helps someone here suffering.

😎😎😎😍😂😂😂

STEP EIGHT

Buy some dope with your hard earned crypto's.

Ha! time to change all those safe injection sites into crypto cafes

Hahahaha @stellabelle, I have in that the two weeks I have in #Steemit ... Does that mean I no longer have salvation?

I'm a Steemaddict! And now, after your advice, sure increase my daily dose XD

Steemit can solve some aspects of drug addiction! People need a place to contribute in society! But I'm sure a couple years in the future when steemit takes off. There'll be a whole new breed of addiction called steemit as we already know! Thanks for helping us understand it in the present!
