    I am afraid for my self.

    I am here over 3 hrs and cannot rationalize nor justify leaving it.

    I love it.

    I learn, i shop, i die, i waste my life, i read, i click, i enter, i think, i surf, i search, i hope, i wait, i want, i order, i cancel, i return, i bid, i win, i lose, i offer, i wait for a message on dating websites. I ….

    i… go home.

    bye

    I know a man who died after being on the internet for 90 years. He also smoked for 90 years, so apparently internet is more lethal than smoking.

    Yes, actually. There were stories of a really addictive online game when I was in middle or high school (maybe it was the original Warcraft?) and someone died because he just spent so much time on it that he forgot to do things like eat or drink.g

    It sounds weird but there are some recent studies suggesting that sitting itself is rather harmful physically. Google the words sitting and dangerous to health and you’ll get a bunch of news stories discussing this topic.

    Internet addiction may not be deadly (though I read of a couple whose baby died because they were compulsively playing video games and didn’t take care of the baby), but it can be very destructive and should be taken seriously.

    Happens every so often in southeast Asia and Japan they take gaming very seriously over there. A guy there died of a burst bladder. There have also people that have had seizures, heart attacks etc.

    Shopping, I think it means sitting continually for 6 hours straight.

    Most American office workers must have it… Asian offices I heard have exercise breaks.
