Criticism of internet addiction disorder
[edit]Criticism section is missing. "Internet addiction disorder" seem to be kinda "fake" term created just to shift attention from "mental disorder" to "problem of Internet" - just to show internet as source of mental issues (demonization of the internet), or even if there are some people with true Internet addiction disorder, term "Internet addiction disorder" is definitely overused. Why is "Internet addiction disorder" overused over bibliomania? What is the difference? Eurohunter (talk) 17:08, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
- Criticism sections are generally dissuaded, since criticism should be incorporated throughout the article.
- Anyway, the criticism is: just because something is at the same time:
- fun (pleasant);
- useful;
- used a lot;
- it does not automatically mean it is an addiction (or disorder). tgeorgescu (talk) 22:28, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
Trim "Related Disorders" section
[edit]It looks like the "Related Disorders" section is overly long and detracts from the article as a whole. I'm going to do a bit of pruning. If others want to join, that would be great. If others have any concerns, let's discuss below. Nowa (talk) 16:53, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
