Even spending just 20 to 30 minutes a day in the bathroom can turn into months and eventually years over an average lifetime.
And today, many people stay there far longer than necessary because phones have turned bathrooms into mini “break rooms.”
Modern toilet habits are very different from the past. Instead of quickly using the bathroom and leaving, people now scroll social media, watch videos, read news, reply to messages, or simply sit there for quiet alone time.
Some studies even suggest the bathroom has become one of the few places where people feel temporarily free from interruptions.
Doctors, however, warn that sitting too long on the toilet regularly is not ideal. Extended pressure can increase the risk of hemorrhoids and straining, especially when people stay seated while distracted by their phones.
