[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 140448, member: 3907"] Thanks for posting this Nomad. What an interesting article. I am interested to see what will be included in the next DSM update about this. I wonder though... The internet and e-mail access are essential to my work. I truly cannot do my job without them. If I am an internet addict then I'm going to have to find a new line of work, because everything I do requires technology in some form or other. I also wonder... Is it the internet itself, or the things that the internet allows us to do, that is so addictive. Using the computer it's so much easier to get to bad stuff (e.g. porn) without ever leaving your house or losing your anonymity. Maybe the internet is just the vehicle. Like having a drug dealer living in your house rather than having to go out and find one. What a thought provoking idea. Trinity [/QUOTE]
