A research study conducted by the University of Maryland charted the reactions of 1,000 students around the globe after they were asked to abstain from all forms of media for a day, Ars Technica reports.
The students reported signs of withdrawal from an addiction: distress, isolation, confusion and boredom. Kids from China and the U.S. presented the highest percentages of withdrawal. One girl from the U.S. said she was “itching like a crackhead.”
Physicians and psychologists remain skeptical, but the findings of the study are indisputable. The feelings and behaviors the students in the study exhibited mirror those of drug addicts. Many students said that didn’t just crave the information and the entertainment, but they actually desired the devices themselves.
Treatment centers for Internet addiction are cropping up around the nation, and they’re charging big bucks for their rehab programs. One in Washington State offers a 45-day program for $14,500.

I'm addicted to SOME of my devices. Like my phone, or my ipod and the internet. I can't go anywhere without my phone, or I'll feel kinda unsafe. my ipod I could probably live without, but I'd really need some source of music or backround noise or I'll freak out. But I can proudly say that before today I havn't been on the internet for a week. But I'd NEVER get addicted to tv, I love my books<3 Like my favorite teacher says, "On a cold winter day, you can't cuddle up with a nice hot cup of cocoa and a tv or an ereader. Well, you probably could but it wouldn't be half as comfortable."

I am addicted to my phone, but I don't mind curling up on the couch with a book either.
