Internet addiction is a ‘clinical disorder’...is this you??

[tonyfloyd]

Obsessive internet use is a public health problem which is so serious it should be officially recognised as a clinical disorder, according to a leading psychiatrist.

British psychiatrists have previously reported that between five and 10 per cent of online users are internet addicts.......

95 is the score here :o

 

[Barrucadu]

My score is 39. I was amazed. I spend at least 6 hours a day online on school days, 13 on others. I could just be an internet addict with a personality out of the norm.

just beacuse i have my first post here at 6:30 am and my last one midnight it means i have a clinical disorder? :p :lol:

actually, sometimes i have this disorder, sometimes i dont :lol:

jokes aside, i can stay away from the computer if i want to or if i need and i know that as it has happened to me of course but i know such disorder really exists and people who have it must be treated as it is a healt issue

i cant open that site?

In all seriousness - I believe it is a true disorder/addiction. Not to mention the web has added to many existing vices/addictions already out of hand IE: Gambling and Porn.

All joking aside - If you think about it for just a few minutes , You'll probably think of someone affected.

Your Internet usage is causing significant problems in your life. You should evaluate the impact of the Internet on your life and address the problems directly caused by your Internet usage.

You are an average on-line user. You may surf the Web a bit too long at times, but you have control over your usage.

I would have thought I was though :lol:
