Internet addiction.
Browsing the internet excessively on a smartphone or computer throughout the day and night is internet addiction.
Doctors said that the number of internet addicts is increasing rapidly with the advancement of information technology. Teenagers and young people, even adults are not left out.
Statistics say that 6-15% of Internet users suffer from this addiction And about 60% of addicts are under 24. Not only addicts, but also their families do not want to accept that the disease is actually mental illness. As a result, there is often a delay in going to the doctor. The situation almost went out of reach then.
Internet addiction is now so widespread that the problem is listed as a mental disorder.
Trouble is, most parents don't even want to understand the problem. They bring their son or daughter to the clinic with other problems. Treatment helps to understand where the real problem lies.
To solve this problem, all unnecessary notifications (sound, vibration) should be removed. Many people keep their mobile phones close at hand while sleeping. This habit should be eliminated. Those who cannot stop themselves from using apps like e-mail, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, they can hide the apps if they want. The mobile phone should be kept out of sight unless it is very necessary.
