[7] Such stories may appear to be almost urban legends, so ashamed are Internet addicts and their partners. After all, who wants to admit they have a 100 a day habit (e-mails, that is) or are somehow less alluring than a piece of hardware? But in America, which has long had a love affair with both therapy and the Net, these stories are common.
[8] A recent survey of 17,251 Internet users found nearly 6 per cent had some sort of addiction to the medium. They revealed that their online habit contributed to disrupted marriages, childhood delinquency, crime and over-spending. Tap into online addiction sites and you'll find messages such as: "Hello, my name is Bob and I'm a Webaholic."
[9] Witness the plight of Ohio woman Kelli Michetti, who literally became a computer hacker because of her husband's constant online chatting. When she crashed a meat cleaver through her husband's computer terminal that solved the problem, although naturally it led to difficulties with the police.
[10] Or take the classic Internet addiction story of Ingrid Parker, a woman who became such a slave to the Internet--especially chat rooms-- that it took over her life. She made do with two hours' sleep a night, had marathon weekend computer sessions of up to 17 hours and fell in love with a married man in the US state of Oregon.
[1]上网成瘾如同邀约好色的人逛妓院，或者在小酒馆里举行"嗜酒者互诫协会"(AA)会员集会。网迷们疲劳地盯着显示屏，敲击着键盘，只想通过万维网寻求咨询。现在有一种为网迷开设的网上咨询服务，其网址是： www.relate.org.nz。你只需把上网引发的"危机"详情用电子邮件发出去，就会从你的邮箱中直接收到帮助信息。新式的计算机治疗专家认为，通过网络寻求帮助并不奇怪，正是它吞噬着网迷们的自由时间，而且危及到他们的婚姻。
[2]"关系服务"网站的苏·海英说："在最近的18个月中，上网成瘾已经成为一个非常突出的问题。服务网站至少是网迷熟悉的地方，他们将能够把它作为戒掉网瘾的工具来使用。"专家们也并不担心服务网站会成为上网者最爱光顾的地方--一个网迷们花费在线时间进行网上诊疗的地方。依赖于任何形式的咨询服务总是靠不住的。海英说，我们可以采取各种措施使服务网站发挥有效作用。
[3]有些人认为，沉醉于因特网的人是患有某种假想的精神失调症，这只是使得精神治疗专家有事可做。然而，关系服务网站却认为这个问题确实存在。
[4]一年前，万维网的使用率为每周3.5小时，而现在达到了4．5小时。诊疗专家罗宾·保罗说，痴迷于因特网往往表现为两种情形。有的人在聊天室相识并坠人爱河。这就像有了不正当关系，然后约会，像蜜月一般慌慌张张的。被抛弃的一方在感情上会受到极大的打击，而这种网上恋爱通常全然没有现实的基础。
[5]"我曾目睹一对夫妇，他们仍在一起，但彼此之间的感情已经摇摇欲坠。男方在网上有了外遇，就飘洋过海去与网上恋人见面，之后，他为了和她在一起而抛妻弃子。在我最近看到的另一个例子中，男方为了跟某个女人在一起，抛下了自己的三个孩子，而那个女人也准备离开她的四个孩子。这种事情可害苦了那些孩子们。
