They spend hours chatting to their friends or playing online games. Many people with IAD spend more time on the Internet than with family or friends.
Do you have IAD? Think about these questions: How many hours a day are you online? Is it a lot or a little? When you are not online, are you thinking about playing a computer game or checking your messages?Do you get angry when you can't play a game?
