A friendship forms, then expands and grows into a cyber-romance. In other cases, the anonymity of online lures an otherwise faithful spouse into "playing around." THE LIVING ROOM RELATIONSHIPS COUNSELING I ndividuals Couples I t is commonly believed that a person who has an online "affair" would have strayed from the marriage anyway if they had the opportunity. The big difference is that online presents so many opportunities. And they can justify (in their own minds anyway) that it's a "safe" affair. After all, it isn't really "real." It doesn't count, right? Wrong.

Net Overuse called "true addiction" By Marilyn Elias USA TODAY Obsessive Internet users have a true addiction that can hurt their relationships and leave them hung over or disabled at work, suggest the largest mental health study so far of heavy Net participants. The study of 396 men and women on line for an average of 38 hours a week was presented to the American Psychological Society. Net addicts are "not just geeky teen-agers," says psychologist Kimberly Young of the University of Pittsburgh-Bradford. "Many are outgoing, good-looking and middle-aged. They can look high-functioning, but there are serious problems just under the surface. Heavy on-line users in her study all met psychiatric criteria for clinical dependence applied to alcoholics and drug addicts. They lost control over their Net usage and couldn't end it despite harmful effects on their personal and professional lives. Some said they logged on the moment they woke up. Others snuck online when the spouses wouldn't catch them and stayed up "talking" to strangers so late they were exhausted at work. Some merely gave up sleep or friendships; others lost jobs, mates and peace of mind. Three rewards drive what Young calls "Internet addiction disorder".

The Net Effect: Internet Addiction and Compulsive Internet Use By Dr. Dave N. Greenfield The Center for Internet Behavior Virtual-Addiction.com The Reality of Internet and Computer Addiction Compulsive Internet use seems to produce the same type of tolerance and withdrawal as other addictions. There is also growing research evidence supporting the conclusion that many Internet users, perhaps as many as six percent, are being negatively impacted by their Internet use. It seems that you can develop a tolerance to Internet use, as you may need greater amounts of time online or to access more stimulating material. Although Web sites need not be sexual in nature in order to become addictive, they often are for a great number of Netheads. Of those who meet the criteria for Internet addiction, 62 percent regularly logged on to pornography sites, and reported experiencing sexual arousal while online "sometimes." They spent an average of over four hours per week viewing material on the adult sites, and 37.5 percent reported masturbating while online! For these Internet users, the Net offered a high degree of stimulation and sexual excitement. Losing Control Fred's story reflects a fairly typical scenario of a man whose sexual preoccupation became dangerous when combined with the power of the Internet. Fred is a 29-year-old professional with a very promising career. His excessive, and at times, self-defeating Internet use pattern demonstrates how sexually addictive the Internet can be.

Quando Internet fa bene alla psiche Inchiesta della Bocconi: la maggior parte dei cybernavigatori trae benefici dalla Rete. Scese in campo con le loro offerte anche Galactica, Wind, Telvia e Micanet. Cliniche virtuali per malati di rete Negli Usa si teme molto la "sindrome da cyberspazio". CLINICHE VIRTUALI PER MALATI DI RETE Negli Usa si teme molto la "sindrome da cyberspazio". di: Francesca Tarissi Vi capita di passare molto tempo davanti al monitor, trascurando il coniuge e gli amici di sempre, sentendovi molto più attratti da un'oretta o due nel MUD (Multi-User Dungeons ) o in chat con persone nuove, piuttosto che dalle faccende domestiche o dallo studio, a detrimento del lavoro, delle incombenze ed anche del cane che, sempre più spesso, dimenticate di portare a spasso? Scaricate più volte la posta nell'arco della giornata ? Siete convinti che la vostra home page sia la migliore al mondo? Vi innervosite se nel mezzo di una partita avvincente vi intimano di scollegarvi ? Allora, forse, fate già parte di quel 10% di utenti che, a detta di esimi specialisti americani, sono affetti dall'IAD (Internet Addiction Disorder), la dipendenza dalla Rete! Questa nuova sorta di comportamente compulsivo, considerato da taluni più allarmisti alla stregua dell'alcolismo e del gioco d'azzardo, porterebbe l'individuo che ne è affetto a voler cercare nel cyberspazio un sicuro rifugio dai problemi che lo affliggono nella quotidianità, ad avere Internet al centro di un suo pensiero consolatorio ricorrente e ad attendere con ansia la prossima connessione alla Rete, trascurando sempre più la propria salute, la propria vita sociale e non ottemperando alle varie responsabilità da cui mediamente siamo tutti afflitti.

Is the Internet Addictive, or Are Addicts Using the Internet? By Storm A. King December, 1996 Cite as: King, S. A. (1996). Is the Internet Addictive, or Are Addicts Using the Internet? Retrieved [fill in todays date here] from the World Wide Web: http://www.concentric.net/~Astorm/iad.html Abstract What makes the Internet attractive? What is Internet Addiction? Who Gets Addicted? ... References Abstract Recent research shows that some users of the Internet spend so much time logged on, that their personal and/or professional life suffers. This finding is corroborated by numerous anecdotal accounts of people becoming "hooked" on on-line interactivity, accounts that have circulated in on-line discussions as well as in real life settings. It is becoming common to know of someone, or have heard of someone, that has become enamored with on-line activity to the point that they ignore important personal responsibilities. This paper is an overview of current research findings, and an attempt to explore some of the possible explanations for this phenomena. Factors inherent in on-line interactivity that might be contributing to developing Internet Addiction Disorder (IAD) are distinguished from factors inherent in the people proposed to be most at risk for, or suffering from, IAD. Recommendations for treatment of affected individuals are offered. What makes the Internet attractive?

37. Is Internet Addiction Real? APA Monitor (Apr 2000) article reveals that more research is being conducted to explore the way people useand misusethe Internet. http://www.apa.org/monitor/apr00/addiction.html

Volume 31, No. 4, April 2000 document.write(''); document.write(''); document.write(''); document.write(''); Is Internet addiction real? More research is being conducted to explore the way people useand misusethe Internet. BY TORI DeANGELIS If you believe what you read, "Internet addiction" is about to make us a nation of derelicts. Men drooling over online pornography, women abandoning their husbands for chat-room lovers and people losing their life savings on gambling Web sites are just a few of the stories peddled in today's press. But despite the topic's prominence, published studies on Internet addiction are scarce. Most are surveys, marred by self-selecting samples and no control groups. The rest are theoretical papers that speculate on the philosophical aspects of Internet addiction but provide no data. Meanwhile, many psychologists even doubt that addiction is the right term to describe what happens to people when they spend too much time online. "It seems misleading to characterize behaviors as 'addictions' on the basis that people say they do too much of them," says Sara Kiesler, PhD, a researcher at Carnegie Mellon University and co-author of one of the only controlled studies on Internet usage, published in the September 1998 American Psychologist. "No research has yet established that there is a disorder of Internet addiction that is separable from problems such as loneliness or problem gambling, or that a pa ssion for using the Internet is long-lasting."

Your wife says communication is important in a marriage, so you buy another computer and a second phone line so the two of you can chat. . . . For many people, the very notion of "Internet addiction" is enough to produce guffaws. The above list of "symptoms" can be found in various permutations all over the World Wide Web. One site consists of an elaborate, 12-step parody of Internet addiction recovery - complete with its own Serenity Prayer. But for growing numbers of people, such jokes are falling flat.
