    Extractions: Josh was 12 when his parents bought him a computer for his room, thinking it would be useful now that Josh was in junior high school. He immediately took to internet and soon discovered email and chat rooms. His parents watched over his shoulder for the first few weeks and discussed the need to be cautious with personal information and made sure that Josh was steering clear of pornographic and violent websites. As they became comfortable with Josh’s behavior on the internet, they no longer watched over him while he chatted with online friends and played online games. Problems soon arose, however. Josh began to spend most of his time in his bedroom with the computer, and he was moody when he was forced to spend time with his family. His grades dropped from A’s and B’s to C’s and D’s. He was irritable when he was away from his computer and often stayed online into the early mornings. When his alarmed parents removed the computer from Josh’s room, he became very hostile and threatened to harm himself. Josh’s parents quickly sought counseling for internet addiction.

Tobacco Internet Addiction What IAD is is difficult to define at this time. Research to date has been composed exclusively of exploratory surveys, which cannot establish causal relationships between specific behaviors and their cause. While surveys can help establish descriptions of how people feel about themselves and their behaviors, they cannot draw conclusions about whether a specific technology, such as the Internet, has actually caused those behaviors. Those conclusions which are drawn are purely speculative and subjective made by the researchers themselves. They cannot be supported by existing data. Do some people have problems with spending too much time online? Sure they do. Some people also spend too much time reading, watching television, and working, and ignore family, friendships, and social activities. But do we have TV addiction disorder, book addiction, and work addiction

    Extractions: You know you're an Internet addict when ... ... your connection goes down suddenly and when you try to reconnect, you are unable to get a dial tone. Stumbling out into the front hall, you discover under the pile of unopened mail two bills and three final demands from British Telecom, the earliest dated six weeks ago. ... you get fired from your job, and all you can think is "At least I'll be able to spend more time on-line now." ... an attractive single person of your preferred sex and orientation asks you over to their place for supper and you try to persuade them to meet you on IRC instead. ... they finally manage to convince you to leave the house, and you turn up for the date with a bottle of cheap wine and a laptop with an internal modem. ... you contemplate doing a bank-job so that you can buy a leased line, but reject the idea on the grounds that if it goes wrong you probably won't be able to get a terminal in your cell in Pentonville. ... you finally open the curtains and discover that the other side of the street has been bulldozed and turned into a theme park, the local posse have spray-painted a mural on the front of your house, and there's been a rave in progress on your front lawn for the last week: "Now, when did that happen?" ... the lettering on the keys 'n', 't', 'p', 'k', 'i' and 'c' on your keyboard has been worn away to nothing, but that doesn't matter because you can type 'nntp kick' with your eyes closed anyway.

    Extractions: Staff Writer "Do you spend more time than you think you should surfing the 'Net?" Ohio University freshman Rignal Duncan read aloud to himself from the survey in front of him. "Are there particular areas of the Net (Instant Messengers), or types of files (MP3) that you find hard to resist?" When he had completed the survey on Internet usage, Duncan noticed something surprising. "I saw more boxes marked yes than no," he said.

    http://www.angelfire.com/id/vrong/addiction.html
    
    Extractions: The Internet is an amazing information resource. Students, teachers and researchers use it as an investigative tool. Physicians use it to learn more about unfamiliar diseases and the latest medical developments. Ordinary folks use it for shopping, banking, bill-paying and communicating with family and friends. People all over the globe use it to connect with individuals of other countries and cultures. "It's opened up a whole new world," a friend explained. "You never know exactly where the journey will take you. Doors open and you take off in new directions. You can learn about anything, I mean anything! And you never have to be lonely, there's always someone out there to connect with." But for some people, the computer world rivals their real world. Some people choose to commune with a computer, rather than their spouses and children. While they expand their horizons electronically, they insulate themselves from intimate settings and relationships. Internet abuse has been cited as a contributing factor in the disintegration of marriages and families and the collapse of promising careers.

    http://www.angelfire.com/nb/Real/netaddiction.html
    
    Extractions: If you looked up addiction in the dictionary, it would be defined as something along the line of not being able to physically live without a certain stimulus. Now, if you couldn't go on the internet for say, a week would you still be alive to whine and complain about it? Well I sincerely doubt you'd be dead on the floor. People do not have fatigue and convulsions without access to the internet. Therefore it is not an "addiction". I admitt some people have cravings to go on but it isn't that serious. People who spend their lives online just need to chill out, turn it off and go outside, just get back to reality. It is one thing to spend your time online if you are bored out of your mind, but it is different if you live your entire life on it, if you can't imagine life without it. Classifying this as an addiction is just an easy way out of coming to terms with the real problems in your lives. People don't want to face their problems.. admitt they might be coming on because there is something wrong in their lives. So, seriously people need to switch off the 'puter, walk away and sort out their lives.

75. Internet Addiction And American Culture
    internet addiction and American Culture. To understand more about how addictsare drawn in it will help to look at a definition for internet addiction.  
    http://www.loyola.edu/dept/philosophy/techne/conrad.html
    
    Extractions: The Internet has great potential for production, but it also has great potential for waste. Certain applications such as discussion groups, e-mail, and on-line news updates are important advances in communications. But on the other hand, applications such as MUDs and chat rooms tend to draw addictive personalities in and not let go until the victim's life is damaged severely. As with any addiction, there are many people that can use the Internet without a problem, and it enriches their lives instead of eclipsing it. To understand more about how addicts are drawn in it will help to look at a definition for Internet Addiction. Internet addiction is defined as "a maladaptive pattern of Internet use, leading to clinically significant impairment or distress…" Through all my research and experience with Internet Addiction, the definition that I like to use is excessive and uncontrollable use of the Internet applications to the point that the subject's real life and relationships are affected negatively. This definition accounts for both the overuse of the Internet and the affect of the overuse on the life of the addict. Of course, as with any addiction, variations will be present in all individual cases. For some, the number of hours per week, which entails overuse, will be different, taking into account students and those who use the computer on a regular basis for legitimate reasons. Before I go into more detail about exactly what entails Internet addiction, I will address the question of whether or not this actually is a medical addiction.

    Extractions: Phone: 541 388-5660 A summary of this article was published in "The Source", July, 2001 Over 130,000,000 Americans are on-line. About 46,000 more people are getting on-line each day. Americans are going on-line looking for information, entertainment and relationships. Use of the Internet (also called the Net) has grown faster than any technology in history including the telephone, television, computers, video games and CD players. The Net provides everyday users with primarily the Web, e-mail, instant messaging, live chat and the ability to purchase goods and services on-line. "You’ve Got Mail…" I Don’t Care. "Do you want to know more?" Nope! "Do you want to see a picture of a naked man?" Of course not!! "Do you want to see a picture of young boy having sex with an older woman?" Not on your life!!!

    Extractions: Yes No View Results by R.W. Greene Q: How do you know when you're addicted to the Internet? A: You start tilting your head sideways to smile. You dream in HTML. Your wife says communication is important in a marriage, so you buy another computer and a second phone line so the two of you can chat. . . . For many people, the very notion of "Internet addiction" is enough to produce guffaws. The above list of "symptoms" can be found in various permutations all over the World Wide Web. One site consists of an elaborate, 12-step parody of Internet addiction recovery - complete with its own Serenity Prayer. But for growing numbers of people, such jokes are falling flat.
