Anxiety

I  read  an article," Overuse of Internet causes Techno-Anxiety" few days ago.
 

Few lines from the article-“People get irritated and often this techno-anxiety leads to aggressive behavior. It causes mood swings and leads lack of concentration in work. Psychiatrists say they receive more than five and six cases of psychological problems caused by the overuse of internet almost every day.”

The main symptom of this anxiety is that a person feel restless if s/he is not able to use internet regularly.

SHOCKING but TRUE!!

No doubt, social networking sites are one of the most popular and easy way to keep in touch with friends and relatives .Blog is like a diary in which one can write his/her thoughts and can share with others. But excessive use of internet (in any form) or its obsession is wrong.

There is some controversy over whether it is possible to actually be addicted to the Internet or not. Some researchers, claim that it is simply people trying to escape their problems in an online world and cannot be classified as an addiction.Other psychologists, believe that Internet addiction is a true psychological disorder with definable symptoms. The symptoms are comparable to any addiction, withdrawal, loss of relationships  and significant time consumption.

Some Symptoms of Internet Addiction:

*Irregular sleeping habit

*Lack of concentration

*Mood swings

*Day dreaming

*Tendency to remain away from society

*Increasing amounts of time spent on computer and internet activities

*Failed attempts to control behavior

*Heightened sense of euphoria while involved in computer and internet activities

*Craving more time on the computer and internet

*Neglecting friends and family

*Feeling restless when not engaged in the activity

It is not wrong to say that social networking sites have become part and parcel of our life.Social networking sites and E-mail ,they serve different functions.E-mail may end up being more "formal" with longer messages, but it will maintain its place.I find e-mail as a better way to keep in touch with family members,friends and relatives as writing mail is more personal(than scraps and wall post),and you can have one to one talk.Compared to teenagers, the elders are reading more emails than communicating via social sites

When I was in school the most common topic for writing essay was "Science is blessing or curse? ",but in today's era  "Science" should get replace by "Internet" thus common topic for essay writing and discussion should be "Internet is blessing or curse?".

Strong determination is required to come out of techno anxiety.

Use internet, don’t allow internet to use you.
