We all have our obsessions. I for example spend all day online. and if im not in front of my computer im browsing on my phone.
I think if you really think its starting to interfere, try to take up a new hobby
its not pathetic, its just you wanting to do what we all do, escape reality. I do it all the time, sometimes when i draw, or when i read, or when i watch movies.
I dont think theres anything wrong with it, but if its bothering u maybe you can go to events at your school, or join a club, or something.

I just joined a support group in my area, and sometimes I go to events that are on campus, sometimes I pathetically go by myself, but it gets me out of the house, even if people think im a loner
