Searching information online during the day, posting online at night and chatting online at midnight are the lifestyles of some college students. In their minds, the lack of internet is like the lack of air. Recently, a survey released at the annual meeting of college psychological society held in Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine shows that the incidence of Internet addiction among college students in this city is 7.9%.

Experts suggest that schools should provide an understanding atmosphere for internet addicts, let them find themselves again, completely cut off internet addiction psychologically, and guide them back to normal life.

Internet addiction among college students has become a research hotspot.

The psychological counseling center of East China Normal University randomly selected 430 students from four universities in this city as the survey objects. The final result shows that 427 students have contacted and used the Internet, 34 students meet the diagnostic criteria of Internet addiction, and the incidence of Internet addiction is 7.9%.

Internet addiction refers to the behavior that individuals suffer obvious social and psychological damage due to excessive internet access under the action of non-addictive substances. The congratulatory letter from East China Normal University pointed out that college students are more likely to be addicted to the Internet because their psychological development is not yet fully mature and their self-control and restraint ability is not strong. Therefore, the phenomenon of college students' Internet addiction has increasingly become one of the research hotspots in various countries.

The first situation is to buy a computer and actually cling to it.

Psychological counseling centers in many colleges and universities in this city pay more attention to college students with internet addiction. In their work, they found that such students are more likely to go to extremes and need timely psychological counseling.

Xiao Cong, a sophomore from somewhere in the south, fell in love with the Internet as soon as he entered the university. Besides playing games and video chatting, he also worships cyber hackers. It was inconvenient for him to surf the Internet all night, so he called home and remitted 5000 yuan to buy a computer. His parents are worried that he will skip class and surf the Internet even more if he has a computer, so they firmly don't support it. Xiaocong simply threatened to die on the phone, saying that 5000 yuan in cash or your son's life was more valuable, scaring his parents to go to his school by train at once, and finally persuading Xiaocong to meet his requirements.
