Well, folks, in case your little hypochrondriac minds weren't occupied enough by fears about secondhand smoke and global warming, here's something else to worry about.The American Journal of Psychiatry has found addiction to text messaging and emailing could be another form of mental illness. The article, by Dr. Jerald Block, said there were four symptoms: suffering from feelings of withdrawal when a computer cannot be accessed; an increased need for better equipment; need for more time to use it; and experiencing the negative repercussions of addiction.
Oh, and it also says that a classic sign could be leaving your Blackberry on your nightstand while you sleep. So that is pretty much the nail in the coffin for Chad.
