Internet Addiction Test

[Cricket]

Do you ever wonder if the internet is having a negative affect on the family unit? Are marriages weakening, turning to the net instead of to each other? Are we spending less quality time with our children?

Very interesting test!

I scored 32

You are an average on-line user. You may surf the Web a bit too long at times, but you have control over your usage.

If I'd taken this test a year ago, I would have scored much higher. But, that was before I realized that web design wasn't a good career choice for me.

Now I only use the net for email, various information searches, occasional games, and this forum of course But, I do find it's much more entertaining than watching television. Like. . .on a night like tonight - my husband and son are at hockey practice, and my daughter is out with her friends. So, instead of watching a movie or something, here I am!

Odd that I got that though. I am online like all day, but I am not freaky about it (ie getting defensive or moody).

I score highest on all tests, no need to do this one :p

"29 - You are an average on-line user. You may surf the Web a bit too long at times, but you have control over your usage."

I take self-imposed breaks from the internet. Sometimes for an entire weekend. I need to do that more. I have more fleshy friends than ones made of internet packets.

Seen this before my score is : 43

You are experiencing occasional or frequent problems because of the Internet. You should consider their full impact on your life.

I scored 61

It is my job though.

OMG I scored 63. I have no life. Please can someone come along and score higher than me please.

I couldn't get through it without opening 4 other tabs and becoming bored. I guess I'm doomed.

[barnabybear]

Thanks chicgeek. At least I know now I don't have the highest score. That makes me feel a lot better

[chicgeek]

Glad you all enjoy my unfortunate situation.

Actually, headed back to classes soon and turning the full time job into part time, so all shall be fixed.

Hey, mine is a case of no one giving a chit how long I spend online, so I feel no guilt, so there is no real impact on my life.

[Sheen91]

HAHA, nice to see everyone feeling guilty except you cricket.

I scored a very high 43, IMHO!

This is to high! Although you have to be crazy to choose the internet over intimacy with your partner!

I can't imagine someone lying on their bed with their laptop on their lap, chating here on v7n. When all of a sudden their Girlfriend comes in, "Hey".
"Hold on honey I'm chatting, and its a bit cold today"

You have to be crazy!
