Internet abuse, causes and effects In the last decade there has been an increase in the use of the internet. Although it’s a very useful Media for everyone, it has provoked negative aspects in the life of some people, especially between the teenagers. There is a big difference between the appropriate use of the internet and the abuse of the internet, I mean when the internet becomes an addiction. Some people waste a lot of time on the internet and they forget their normal activities causing less productivity. This type of problem is more usual between teenagers due we spend a lot of time in social networks, chats etc, and we forget to do other things. This causes that we can’t pass time with our family and friends, we forget the school, or even we forget of ourselves, neglecting our personal aspect. Excessive use of the internet can bring health problems also. Many people can develop depression, anxiety or other psychological problems. In summary we can say that the excessive use of the internet can bring serious consequences to a person. It’s for that is very important that we learn to control the time we spend on the internet and use it properly.
