Can it be hazardous to your health if you spend most of your time in front of a screen?
I spend all day either in front of a laptop or a ps3 usually until 5 am then I go to bed and wake up around 4 pm. I am always tired and for the most part I don't feel like doing anything. I can't even remember the last time I went outside. I don't have problems with obesity though because I always skip lunch and have only one meal a day so I don't pig out on food. It's pretty common for me to feel depressed basically because I feel like I have nothing to look forward to. I live in a small town in Brazil, It's pretty boring with nothing to do outside, and the place itself isn't the great. There's no space, no parks,and the houses are crammed together next to each other. There's no activities at all . The only outdoors activity, I could think of, would be go out and do drugs with random people. But, the last thing I'd like to be is a homeless junkie. Is there a solution to my problem or any ideas to soothe my pain? I feel suicidal sometimes, I know this sounds upsetting, but I usually feel like ending my life, I don't know if I'd have the guts to go through with it though.

Answer 1 :
Do you have a bike? Could you cycle to get some exercise? Is there a swimming pool or a sports centre? It is so bad for your health not to get some exercise, even if you are not overweight. Surely there must be some sort of a youth club, or could you do voluntary work? Are there any gardens where you could offer to do some gardening? The easiest thing to do would be to simply go running. Could you get a bus out of town and take photos of wildlife? You are just stuck in a rut, and lack of activity in itself will make you feel depressed.
Answer 2 :
being in front of a screen all the time can be very harmful for your health. it can cause sever headaches and eye problems, backache and arthritis. sleeping at all hors of the day is depressing when your doing that everyone is up doing other things. it may be a boring town but even an hour outside can make you feel so much happier and so much more awake. you dont need to do drugs im sure you know a friend and maybe would take a walk with you outside and making plans to hang out or watch a movie can make all the difference. thinking about ending your life isnt a way to go. sitting at home all the time can be fixed but suicide is a permanant thing. and you might want to take an intrist in art its very soothing and not on a computer.
Answer 3 :
