Do you believe the internet can make you depressed?

My mum said she saw on the news that being on the internet too long can make you depressed. Do you think this is true?

Answer #1

it just might be :/

Answer #2

It is scientifically proven that being on the computer can cause depression because of the specific light waves that are emitted from electronics. However, whether you are or are not on the internet does not affect that risk. You can just as easily become depressed from computer time playing Solitaire as you can surfing the web.

Answer #6

I definitely think that being on the internet too much can cause feelings of depression. The more time you spend on the internet, the less interaction you have with people in your real life. With that being said, the internet can distance you away from your family and friend, and therefore cause loneliness.
