3. People Tell You to 'Get Off TikTok'

Whether it's your mom, dad, brother, bestie or S.O., if people always seem to be telling you to "get off your phone" or "get off TikTok," that's a sure sign that you're obsessed. When you start putting the app before the people you love, it's time to re-evaluate!

 

4. You Have Liked Thousands of Videos

Go to your "liked" section and try to scroll down as far as you can. Once you get tired of scrolling, click on a video and look at the date. If it's from years ago, you might be in the clear. But if it only went back a few weeks or months, you might be in trouble!
