Digital addiction (DA) has become a series issue with a multitude of consequences for people who abuse technology. According to Ali et al. (2015), these consequences include “reduced involvement with their real life communities and lower Grade Point Averages due to its negative impact including procrastination, distraction, and poor time-management. People who feel insecure in real life often try to compensate in the digital world. When that later option fails, it reduces even more their self-confidence and self-esteem.

Dr. Kimberly S. Young has classified online addiction into five different types: computer (games) addiction, information overload, net compulsions, cyber-sexual addiction, and cyber-relationship addiction. Social network addiction is still a relatively new phenomenon and would belong to the cyber-relationship category, while still including elements of others such as games. This DA has symptoms that are similar to those that occur in “traditional” addiction like mood modification, tolerance, salience, withdrawal symptoms, conflict, and relapse. <ref name=”5”></ref> | Dr. Kimberly S.
