A new study says internet addiction is more serious than OCD. How do you gauge that? Does that make internet addicts more or less popular? Makes you wonder if the OCD people are obsessing over us internet nerds taking their slot on the disorder list.
"Internet addiction is not manifesting itself as an 'urge.' It's more than that. It's a deep 'craving.' And if we don't make the change in the way we classify Internet addiction, we won't be able to treat it in the proper way," Dannon said Friday in a release. He said the two groups at greatest risk from Internet addiction disorder are teenagers and people in their mid-50s suffering from the loneliness of an empty nest.
