In my daily chores in different forums I often encounter users who seem to be addicted to working online. Some of them say that they can work more than 12 hours continuously. That is like working for 8 hours with 4 hours overtime. If you do that every day then that is clearly abusing your health.
The reason they can do that is the easy work in the internet. All you do is sit down in front of the computer and use your fingers to type. Not much effort needed, yes, physically but mentally there is the fatigue in your head.
In fairness to those workaholics in the internet I can also do that. When I was writing a movie script I would sleep after midnight and start writing after taking breakfast by 7 am. Making it worse, I was a smoker during that time. The cigarette robbed me of sleep so I could work for a longer time. Fortunately my health did not suffer much.
