Have you ever thought how often you spend you time on the internet? or have you ever thought that you may be addicted to texting or e-mailing? According to American Scientist's you may be suffering from  a certain type of brain illness.
In March's edition of the American Journal of Psychology, excessive amounts of text messaging, e-mailing and online gambling may all be due to internet addiction. Jerald.J.Block author of the article said "Sufferers of the condition tend to show four distinct symptoms: excessive use; withdrawal and an associated sense of anger or depression when they cannot reach a computer; a need for better equipment and more time; and negative repercussions such as lying, social isolation and fatigue." Dr Block highlighted the situation in South Korea where internet addiction is one of the south-east Asian country's "most serious public health issues"
Using data from 2006, the South Korean government estimates that approximately 210,000 South Korean children (2.1%; ages 6–19) are afflicted and require treatment," he wrote.

He added that 80 per cent of those who need treatment may require medication and about a quarter may need to be admitted to hospital.

In the US, the figures are not so readily available but Dr Block cautioned that the common trend for "games and virtual sex [to be] accessed from the home" offer a different problem.

"Attempts to measure the phenomenon are clouded by shame, denial, and minimisation," he added.
