Email Burnout: Consumers Stressed By Having To Reply To Emails, Clean Their Inbox

There has been much talk about social media addiction. But what about that other habit-forming channel: Email? Email causes quite as serious a problem as social, judging by the State of Email Addiction in America, a study by TaskHusky. 

The average American spends 1.69 hours a day checking and responding to emails, it says. In contract, a separate study by the Reboot Foundation found that people spend 82 minutes on social per day. 

Of course, this study seems to be talking mostly about work emails.
