Am I Suffering From Internet Addiction?
Question by miranda.mckennitt: Am I suffering from internet addiction?
Or is it my personality disorder manifesting itself? I use Internet a lot. When I use it I feel that my mind expands through the link, I feel larger, I’m not trying to be mythical here. It’s a similar feeling to the one one gets when operating some machine, like a car – a car to the car driver seems to be an extension of her body. I find my friends and lovers online, I work online, I use Internet for recreational purposes too. I stopped watching TV and listening to FM radio about 1994. If the link is down for a while I feel unwell and check it until it’s up again. I give much time to developing of my online personality and try to use it also offline – I feel that my Internet name fits me more than my own, for example. Do I need to seek help? Can it really be cured? I practically can’t live without the Internet…

Everyone needs hobbies in life and you have found yours. I wouldn’t call it an addiction.
If you don’t have a problem with that and can’t live without it then i suggest you stick to it. Do what is best for you
You need to take at least some time off away from the computer, and I suggest you make a time-table that includes such times, and make sure you stick to it. Make a slot of at least one hour per day when you get outside and take some exercise – just walking is fine. Put some time aside for reading books, writing your diary, or any thing else you fancy really. Take your meals away from the computer, and allow yourself an hour each time. It is also really really important that you have a slot for origami !
Good luck !
