Do you feel preoccupied with the Internet (think about previous online activity or anticipate next online session)?
Do you feel the need to use the Internet with increasing amounts of time in order to achieve satisfaction?
Do you feel restless, moody, depressed, or irritable when attempting to cut down or stop Internet use?
Have you lied to family members, therapist, or others to conceal the extent of involvement with the Internet?
Do you use the Internet as a way of escaping from problems or of relieving a dysphoric mood (e.g., feelings of helplessness, guilt, anxiety, depression)?
If you answered “yes” . . .well, you’ll just have to read the rest of the article at The Center for Internet Addition Recovery.
Scary, huh?

I plan to post a review of Lorena McCourtney’s Your Chariot Awaits. Loved the book! The writing was pure joy. I’ll share some of that with you in the review. On November 7th, I’m in a blog tour for Sandra Glahn.
Finished two proposals this week! Yippee!
