Internet Addiction In Teens

An Internet addiction or gaming addiction can be very damaging to a child’s future. Trails Carolina can offer solutions to these challenging Issues. Trails offers addiction treatment services for Internet Addiction, Video Game Addiction and Computer Addiction by removing the technology dependence and replacing it with healthier habits.

Are you wondering what constitutes an addiction to these various outlets? Does your teen or young adult lose track of time, isolate from real life friends and family, or use the internet as an outlet when stressed, sad, or looking for a release?
Those addicted to games, internet, or computers often forget to take even the most basic level of care for themselves. Studies show that teens and young adults who suffer from video game or internet addiction are more hostile and are more likely to argue than others.

• Suffer from Anxiety
