Remember the days before cell phones? I really don't want to think about it! I can't imagine my life without my I-Phone setting right next to me. It's an extension on my arm, my right hand man, my life. When I'm bored, I always find something to read or play, especially at the doctor's office, because we all know, that's the most boring time of anyone's day.

A new study caught my attention recently. Researchers found that we've gotten so used to being able to occupy ourselves with our phones, that without it, we may fall to self torture!

For reals!

Scientists had people sit in a waiting room without their phones, and their only option to stimulate themselves was to press a button that gave them a mild shock. I'm surprised that one in four women and two out of three men sat there shocking themselves!

Are we really dependent on our phones?! I guess this study proves that we are!
