Why Are you Addicted?

I feel like I'm missing something important when I'm not on the internet. It is a feeling of anxiety.
Before the internet, I used to listen to the radio news on the hour a few times a day. I thought that I might hear a name of someone I knew or miss an important news story.
It takes an effort to plan what websites I am going to visit on the internet and then get away from the computer when I am finished.
I don't own a cell phone or portable handheld tablet, etc. I choose not to.
