Compulsive Internet Use

Compulsive Internet Use refers to an excessive preoccupation with online activities that interferes with daily life, work, or relationships. It resembles addiction, where individuals feel a strong urge to be online and struggle to control their time spent on the internet. This behavior can lead to neglect of responsibilities, social withdrawal, and emotional distress. Causes may include loneliness, stress, or the rewarding nature of online interactions. Recognizing this pattern is important, as it can impact mental health and overall well-being. Professional help can assist individuals in managing and reducing compulsive behaviors for a healthier balance.
