Показать описание
The internet is a global network connecting million of computers. It has revolutionized communication, and methods of commerce and is considered a boon to all. Though the internet has brought many positives to our lives, the ill effects of addiction to internet and digital technology are now becoming a cause of concern.

As compared to 5 million in 2000 , there were about 462 million internet users in June 2017 in India, and this number is further expected to reach 700 million by 2020. India's monthly wireless data usage also rose to 1.3 billion GB in March 2017 from 200 million GB in June 2016.

In this scenario the youth, specially students and working professionals, are most susceptible to developing internet or mobile phone addiction because they are generally the heaviest users of information and technology. Several studies have also revealed the problem of internet addiction.

I used to be addicted to internet, when I realized it, I deleted my Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp account. Now I talk to people by calling them and best meeting them. Life is good now

There is no way to
Escape from internet addiction, instead of never use it.

mental and behavioral disorder



way forward
awareness among people about ill efect of internet addiction

must try innovative way like in US and Japan rasturan, 20% discount if not using internet while having meal
use alarm wathc instead of using mobile phone
Strictly ban useage of mobile phone duting school or college time
Counseling

conclusion
Intenet is great thing but excess of anytihng is bad. This is invisible drug that everyone is taking we should prevent it.
Resolving an Internet addiction is difficult because unlike alcohol or drugs, use of the Internet is often required for work or school.
There is vast amjority who are having a problemtic interbet use and they are inching towards addiction of internet, this is the chunck which needs to be seen
from preventive prespective

best way to get rid of any addiction is to do mindfulness meditation, the moment you will understand all thoughts are temporary you can not be taken away by them and all addiction are self gratification, the gratification is itself momentary and impermanent so do all things in universe.
But it is easier said than done because we cant observe our own mind but if you are successful (it requires lot of practice) then you can see and decide which thought to act on and which to just observe and let it pass(do not supress your thoughts but see them and dont act just let them pass if they are unnecessary there)

for example if you have thought like let me see whats trending on youtube but you have another important work in hand which you know is sure more important and if still you waste your 1 hour on youtube then it is addiction which you have no control over,

so here you can be able to decide between two thought which to act on first decide your priority and rather than feeling guilt of 1 hour waste of time you can first finish your work in hand and then if still you feels like then do it afterwards sometimes you will see the urge will go itself. You might remember how you used to draw attention of your younger sibling or any small baby and that baby forgets whats in her hand and plays along with you the same is true of mind you can not let it control you harmful way you have to get hold of it and make your life easy and peaceful rather than frustrated and guilty.

1) behavioural addiction to an action not necessarily to an entity.
2) it has reached to a lot of people.
3) it has both +ve and -ve aspects, -ve being physical, mental and social.
4) there are various addiction being recognized such as game addiction, selfieties, fomo etc.
5) WHO has recognized game addiction as a health hazard.

Internet is service which gives us opportunity to connect with people of any country or we can say globally it is very interesting to know that internet connection is increasing very vast this tells that how people are excited to connect with this as rstv pointed out that internet accessible in 2000 is only 20 million or more but now it is over 462million that a huge. In india globally internet plays an important role to connect with any information but we have to ensure that its use in right direction as we all know that it has negative aspects also but it is our behaviour how to deal with this we can use it in right way or use in wrong . For eg. if we are student so we should use this as a knowledge tutorial but everything is internet is not good we have to do our another activities on time this will helps in follow our schedule so in last we have ensure that internet is only useful in our life and only helps to knowledge access not for anything else we should use this in proper direction thanks rstv for giving this information😎😎😎😎😎
