>>11290828if we think of information as a mental substance, which is unorthodox but not incorrect, yeah definitely. tho it's not blanket internet addiction, that's not that useful. like saying drug addiction, which drug? curing a meth addict of a meth addiction doesn't mean they will necessarily transfer that behavior to alcohol or pot or whatever. this is why this is important. is it social media, porn, videos, cat pics, mmos, etc? i think narrowing down to the type of internet addiction is crucial because how vital internet use is to daily life. and ofc there is a cure as with any disease but sadly seeing how new this phenomena is idk how tried and tested methods are.
