Compulsive, Impulsive, and Anxiety Disorders Program: Internet Addiction he Internet clearly has a role to play in today's information age and will become increasingly important in our communications, our work life and our daily activities. However, like other powerful media, the Internet is also an avenue for abuse, leading people to exhibit behaviors that are counterproductive, isolating and destructive to themselves and their normal functioning. Some Clues to the Presence of Internet Addiction Staying on-line longer than intended Neglecting household chores to spend more time on-line Often preferring the excitement of the Internet to intimacy with a partner Frequently forming new relationships with fellow on-line users Family or friends complaining about the amount of time spent on-line School or job performance suffering because of the amount of time you spend on-line Failing at attempts to cut down the amount of time spent on-line Trying to hide amount of time spent on-line Feeling depressed, moody, or nervous off-line, which goes away once back on-line

Write a response to this article Internet addiction: evaluation and treatment Practitioners need to be aware of new type of addiction The internet is a neutral device originally designed to facilitate research among academic and military agencies. The way some people have come to use this medium, however, has created a stir among the mental health community, and internet addiction has become a serious topic of discussion. Addictive use of the internet is a new phenomenon that many practitioners are unaware of and consequently unprepared to treat. Some therapists are unfamiliar with the internet, making its seductive powers difficult to understand. Sometimes its impact on the afflicted person's life is minimised as many practitioners do not recognise the legitimacy of the disorder. This editorial reviews the diagnostic criteria, associated features, subtypes, consequences, and treatment implications of internet addiction, to help prepare clinicians on these issues in practice. The best method clinically to detect compulsive use of the internet is to compare it with criteria for other established addictions. Of all the diagnoses referenced in the

With printed information, you're depending on the editor being competent to judge the veracity of the information presented.

Printable Version Internet Icon January 1, 1997 Stuck in the Web Internet "addiction" is cutting into some people's lives with unhealthy results. by Dave Reardon Jonathan Tanji Posted: January 1, 1997 (WebWoman) Hey, SurfMan, what time is it in Hawai'i? (SurfMan) Ack! it's 3:20 a.m., and all's not well. I've got a chem final tomorrow, I mean today. (WebWoman) Have you studied? (SurfMan) No. I've been cruising around online the past five hours. (WebWoman) Hey, Surf, get a life, man. Unfortunately, SurfMan failed his exam. In fact, he slept through it because of his latest marathon computer session that had nothing to do with chemistry. Psychologists say that although Internet addiction is a problem for many people, college students seem to be especially vulnerable. "About 15 percent get addicted," says Dr. Leon James, who teaches computer psychology courses at the University of Hawai'i at Manoa. "They end up spending four or five hours a day, or more, on the computer. Then other things in their life suffer." Adam Tolentino of Palolo, now a 29-year-old engineer and musician, admits that he was entangled in the Web while a student at UH a few years ago.

Young's Caught In The Net email Chris at chris@spikemagazine.com Got an opinion or a question about this article? Come and talk about it in the spike forum D r Kimberly Young has made something of a name for herself in the last few years with her research into the phenomenon of Internet addiction. Having set up the Centre for On-line Addiction and written numerous papers about Internet addicts over the last three years, Caught In The Net is a distilled account of her findings. Young's book presents itself as both a case study collection and a self-help guide. Internet addiction is defined as the compulsive urge to continually use the Net, whether it be to spend hours surfing the Web, hang around in IRC chatrooms, or play on-line games. Young paints a disturbing picture of relationships being ruined, children being neglected and the addict's well-being being destroyed by their need for the Net. But despite her credentials as Assistant Professor of Psychology at the University of Pittsburgh, there is a distinct lack of scholarly rigour to Young's writings. There are few statistics presented for the reader's scrutiny or concrete arguments for why Internet addiction is somehow comparable with alcohol or drug dependency. In fact, the main basis of the book's assertions appear to be a questionnaire to which four hundred Internet users responded. Given the millions of Net users around the world, this simply isn't enough of a research bedrock to justify Young's fear of a "potential epidemic" of Internet addiction.

Identify two physical and two psychological health effects of IAD. Identify two current treatments for IAD. Since the 1980s, the widespread availability of personal computers and advent of the Internet and the World Wide Web have revolutionized society. In addition to channels of communication, the Internet provides a forum for the exchange of cutting-edge health information and resources. However, it has also created many health-related problems. Consider the following scenario: Background and Overview In 1962, the RAND Corporation began research into communication networks to maintain military command and control that could survive a nuclear war. By 1969, four West Coast universities became involved in developing computerized linkages and networks. Online communication made public headlines in 1976 when Queen Elizabeth sent the first royal e-mail message. In the mid-1980s, loose connections of networks (previously referred to as ARPANET) became known as the Internet; this development corresponded with widespread availability and use of personal computers.

The boy (John) posed as a teenage girl for another adolescent male (Mark), then later "introduced a series of other characters to the chat room, including a second girlfriend, a stalker and two secret service agents modelled on Bond films." "One of the agents, identified as Agent 47695, told Mark she had been assigned to protect John. Later she ordered Mark to kill the boy, promising him a gun, a large sum of money and a meeting with British Prime Minister Tony Blair as a reward." Weird. And sad.

Internet addiction from a narrative psychology point of view Home Narrative Psych Other texts: Life as Fiction (PhD thesis) Life as Fiction Literary Paths Re-Authoring Therapy ... Internet Addiction This paper examines Internet addiction from the perspective of narrative psychology. A brief sketch of this perspective is necessary before proceeding. Narrative psychology A narrative understanding of human behaviour attends to the meanings negotiated around action, ranging from routine accounting to tall tales. This semiotic approach borrows primarily from the literary field in analysing these meanings. An often-used literary device in narrative psychology is the schema of four mythoi, developed by Northrop Frye. According to this literary theorist, narrative structures proceed in a cycle that includes romance, comedy, tragedy and satire. In romance, the individual triumphs over adversity and a new order is instituted. By contrast, in comedy the individual gives way to the group, which is refreshed by overcoming dissent. In tragedy, an individual cannot return to this world from the ordeal. And as a catchall category, in satire the preceding three myths are shown to be unrealistic. The four mythoi offer interpretations of episodes in which individual and group encounter threats to their existence. In the case of Internet addiction, a narrative approach attends to the implicit stories that are used to make sense of this phenomenon. This paper divides into two parts. The first part examines the meanings attached to the online experience. The second part views some of the narrative structures that contain the addiction phenomenon.

Has anyone first hand knowledge of such addiction? Are these cyber-addicts just surfing or are they usually in some sort of interactive on-line relationship to others? What might be the dynamics of such addictions? What might be an appropriate therapeutic posture vis-a-vis such individuals? One could speculate that an intense interactive on-line relationship might fill certain needs for basic selfobject experiences. These could possibly provide mirroring s-o-e [=selfobject experiences], or alter-ego s-o-e. Even the idealization of the interactive other is possible with resulting idealizing s-o-e.
