Internet Addiction and Its Impact

The document discusses Internet Addiction Syndrome (IAS) as a new illness recognized by psychologists. IAS has led to broken relationships, job losses, financial ruin, and even one suicide. Special help groups have been set up to offer sufferers support. Psychologists describe worrying examples like a man who spent over £14,000 and a teenager needing psychiatric treatment for 12-hour daily habits. Experts say IAS is a real illness similar to gambling or smoking addictions, where addicts dream of the Internet, use it first thing in the morning, and lie about usage. Almost anyone can be at risk, especially middle-aged housewives and teenagers already hooked on computer games.

CLIFF JONES
In 2005, Cliff Jones began a journey round Britain on a unicycle, a bike with only one wheel. He had
already made a documentary film about his experiences travelling round Europe in a 50-year-old car.
He was mad about motor sport and had a job building racing car engines. To save money, Cliff rode to
work in London on an old bicycle, which he also used to go to France on holiday. “That trip opened my
eyes”, he says. “I decided to do a tour of Britain by bike”.
Cliff didn’t want a normal tour bike, and he knew he wanted to build one himself. “The craziest bicycle
I could think of was a unicycle, so I went to a factory to see how they are made”. After one false start in
2004, when he had to turn back because of a knee injury, he finally set out in 2005. He was away for
four months, and travelled over 8,500 km.
The best bit of the trip was arriving in Wales and seeing Mount a Snowdon. “Although I met cyclists
who could easily ride up mountains on their bikes, which I couldn’t do, I never regretted my unicycle.
The further away from London I got, the more amazed people seemed by it”. His worst moment came
when he had to drink some dirty water from a stream. A serious fever kept him in bed in hospital for
five long days. He was determined not to give up and go back home before he had completed his
challenge, but found it hard to carry on because he felt so weak. Yet despite all this, Cliff now says, “If I
could affort it, I would like to do something similar again”.
