Day 10 Blog
After reading last day's posts, some good relationships were made between playing video games and an addiction to speed. Obviously the physical signs and symptoms are not the same, but some of you could relate to the "addiction" as well as the "good feeling" you get while playing the games. Consider this: "Cyberaddiction is developed through the use of the computer. Let's specify that it is not the computer we are addicted to; rather we are addicted to the experience we have because of the machine...In the same way drugs and alcohol can be , the computer becomes a way to escape reality, deny problems, or forget about them by devoting time to something else." (Jean-Pierre Rochon, Internet Addiction psychologist). Comment on this psychologist's research.
