INTERNET AND OTHER ADDICTIONS

In my opinion the internet is a tool that is becoming somewhat necessary in many ways because it can help you do many things in an easier way, for example we can use it as a work tool, besides to search information. we can buy and sell products, know people all over the world, keep in touch with our friends who live far from our country and many others things. But everything with internet is not good especially when you think that internet is all that you need.

When you spend hours and hours surfing on the net everyday you increase time in the computer. It is already a problem, for that reason i think is true that it can become an addiction.

I know a person who spends a long time conected on the web.

In spite of he works, he takes time to go to the computer and answer every message he recives. The last time i saw him, he told me that he used to go bed about 3:00pm everyday even though he has to wake up early to go work. besides, his girlfriend brake up with him because she felt disappointed and bored. They were always in touch but the relatation was decreasing gradually and finally it didn't  work.

Personally i don't feel any interest in surfing the net. sometimes i use facebook but i think it is something stupid. I usually see my friends pictures and check their commens. Most of the time i only use my computer to look  for information and do my homework.

I steel belive that it  is better to keep a relation with our friends face to face not writing in a computer its more fun to spend a good time in the movies, in a park or celebrating a birthday etc.. 

Internet addiction

Many countries around the world have people with this  situation. I think places with mores access to the internet have more  influencies cause  they have more oportunities  to use it.

Dominican Republic is one of  them ( countries with internet  addiction).  For example , the last semester one of may old friends sat beside me , he  started speak about everything , he never know that l was listening  to him.

Internet addiction

We have to beware with the internet addiction because sometime we are addicted and we do not know it. I know alot of people with that situation and maybe I am one of them because I spend a lot of time on the net, sometime I open the computer to do homework or something else but I always stay for a long time on it and I do not do what I should do.

Internet Addiction

Nowadays internet use has a lot advantages and disadvantages, and each person’s internet use is different.  The internet provides us several sources of information and entertainments and we can access to internet from most smart phones, laptops, tablets, and computers it does not matter the place or time. Most people might need to use the internet extensively for work, and important resources and those people are not addicted to internet at all.

The time spent online can be hugely productive but compulsive internet use can interfere with daily life, work and relationships and it becomes a problem when we spend a lot of time online with things that do not have profit.

Many people turn to the internet in order to manage unpleasant feeling such as stress, loneliness, depression ad anxiety ad they feel more comfortable with online friend than the real ones and also an internet addicted person can not stop playing games, gambling, chatting, or compulsive surfing. When you are addicted to internet you lose the track of time and it might cause physical discomfort like dry eyes or strained vision, backaches, neck aches, headaches, sleep disturbance and also you can gain or lose weight. Everyone has to balance the spent time online because everyday the technology is more advanced and we have to use the internet for any purpose  , so be careful how to use the net.
