Internet Addiction

For my field research, I decided to do my research on Internet addiction I choose to do it on Internet addiction because there are millions of people out there that are addicted to the Internet and they have an alter ego life via Internet. These people do not go out and socialize with real people. They choose to have a second life, and they are so caught up in it they don’t even know …

…and select which game they would like to play, they can wager how much they want, just like in a real casino. I’ve learned that people with Internet addiction not only behave differently, they think differently. They have obsessive thoughts about the Internet and feel as though the Internet is their only friend. There is the feeling that Internet is the only place where they feel good about themselves and the world around them.
