Are you addicted to the internet?

Whereas I like the internet and the communication option it provides me with, I am probably rather addicted to my computer. I not only completely loose track of time, I also don't notice physical discomfort, e.g. when shaking seriously inconveniences my typing I notice that I am absolutely freezing and should be getting a warm jacket . . .
 
I haven't thought about in terms of addiction before, but considering the amount of time a spent on the internet, it sounds about right.
 
The internet is what's keeping me alive. The endless amount of info you can get on the net is simply amazing. I highly appreciate Internet. So i would say i am quite hooked.
 
Well, without the internet I would have zero positive contact with other human beings. You can be yourself on the internet, but at the same time it would be nice to be able to be yourself without the internet too.

I would not say I am addicted to the internet, but without it I would feel isolated and even more depressed then I do now.
