Internet Addiction Proven In China

Hello there.

Just lie back on the couch.

Comfy?

I’ll need you to be totally open with me.

Ok?

Now, can you honestly tell me, do you:

  • Spend 6 hours online a day?
  • Yearn to get back online when you’re off-line?
  • Feel distress (mental or physical) when disconnected from the interweblogosphere?
  • Have trouble concentrating or sleeping?

Did you answer “Yes”?

Good! That means you’re part of this modern world where people are loving the connectivity that the shiny gadgets bring 🙂

Sorry – I meant to say it’s bad!

Well, according to Beijing’s Military General Hospital, you have a treatable illness and you need therapy NOW!

Hang on though – looking at their diagnostic guidelines; they are pretty vague to say the least.

Phwew!!!!  No need for that lovely padded cell just yet………..well, as far as my online addiction presence is concerned anyhoooo 😉
