However, for some people, the Internet can be problematic. This chapter will look at how the Internet impacts mental health particularly in the arena of pathological Internet usage. It will also explore the topics of Internet addiction, social networking, online gaming, and mobile phone dependency and will look at therapeutic options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>Chapter Summary<\/summary>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is Psychopathology?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Psychopathology is a difficult concept to define.&nbsp; Many definitions elude to \u2018the four D\u2019s\u2019 \u2013 comprising of deviance, destress, dysfunction, and danger.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The study of mental health embraces a broad field of psychological problems that can occur in people\u2019s lives. These problems include stress, anxiety, addiction, and mood disorders.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">DSM-5 and How It Views the Internet<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Diagnostic Statistical Manual published by the American Psychiatric Association is the standard tool used to classify mental disorders. The most recent publication is the DSM-5TR (APA, 2022).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The predecessor to the DSM-5TR was the DSM-5 (2013). This publication identified Internet gamers as an at-risk population, who may develop dependence or an addiction to online gaming. The DSM-5 outlines the proposed criteria for the inclusion of this disorder for future publications.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-11) considers gaming disorders. The debate as to whether internet gaming disorder is a valid disorder is ongoing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Internet gaming may be similar to gambling as the reward systems of the brain are activated and can be considered behavioural addiction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A large proportion of the research relating to online addiction comes from Asia and further research is necessary for it to be considered as a disorder in the next DSM.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is the Range of Internet-Based Disorders?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>PIU, problematic computer use, Internet addictions, Internet dependency, and pathological Internet use are all terms that relate to problematic Internet use.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Traditional models of addiction have been used to explain Internet addiction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sex, gambling, online relationships, and shopping are also included as problematic.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Internet Gaming<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Gamers identify that they play games for entertainment, leisure, and also as an emotional coping mechanism.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Some hard-core players may suffer from emotional problems and low self-esteem.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Internet gaming has attracted a lot of media and academic attention but the cultural context of gaming needs to be considered.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Social Networking<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Social networking sites such as&nbsp;<em>Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp, TikTok, and Instagram<\/em>&nbsp;etc. are very much part of everyday life.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Menon and Meghana (2021) suggest that the motivations for using social networks include interaction, information seeking, and escapism.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nomophobia and Mobile Usage<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Nomophobia is a relatively new word that refers to the fear of being out of mobile phone contact, a run-down battery, or losing the phone itself. It is shaped by technological and digital tools and a fear of being out of digital contact with people and information.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Overuse can lead to problems, such as mobile phone addiction, and problematic mobile phone usage.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We need to consider why people use mobile technologies and consider both the advantages and disadvantages of mobile technology.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pathological Internet Usage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Possibility of Internet Addiction<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Internet Addiction Disorder is not considered by the DSM-5\/DSM-5TR.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The ICD-11 identifies gaming disorder as problematic.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Overuse of the Internet may have a negative impact on relationships and physical health.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Screen time refers to time spent on any screen. Research on screen time is fairly new and our tolerance of time spent on screens may be tampered by Internet usage over the COVID-19 period.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is It Possible to Be Addicted to the Internet?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The definition of the term \u2018addiction\u2019 is problematic.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>However, there are a number of digital detox programmes available for those who wish to \u2018unwire\u2019.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Treatment Options<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>It is important to recognise that Internet addiction may be a disease of contemporary society and new models of treatment are likely to emerge over time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Abstinence is another option, however this is difficult due to the prevalence of the web in our lives.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Harm Reduction Therapy (HRT) may be a useful therapeutic options.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Using Technology to Support Recovery<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Virtual Reality (VR) has been identified as a potentially useful treatment for a number of mental health problems, i.e. anxiety, depression, and addiction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Virtual Environments (VE) can support CBT interventions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gaming has been identified as useful in improving mood.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Computerised CBT (cCBT) has the potential to be used as a self-help or therapist-based tool and can cover a wide range of health difficulties.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Computer gaming is useful in helping to treat children and adolescents with anxiety disorders.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Online counselling has been effective in offering treatment for a number of years now. COVID-19 has accelerated the growth and acceptance of online counselling and therapy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-query alignwide is-layout-flow wp-block-query-is-layout-flow\"><ul class=\"wp-block-post-template is-layout-flow wp-block-post-template-is-layout-flow\"><li class=\"wp-block-post post-1286 content type-content status-publish format-standard hentry content-type-content parent-book-40 resource-type-weblinks\">\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\"><h2 class=\"alignwide wp-block-post-title\">Chapter 12 \u2013 Useful Websites<\/h2>\n\n<div class=\"entry-content alignwide wp-block-post-content is-layout-flow wp-block-post-content-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The CyberPsychology, Behavior and Social Networking (Mary Ann Libert, Inc.) is a monthly peer-reviewed journal that focuses on many aspects of online behaviour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.liebertpub.com\/overview\/cyberpsychology-behavior-brand-social-networking\/10\/\">http:\/\/www.liebertpub.com\/overview\/cyberpsychology-behavior-brand-social-networking\/10\/<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Kimberly Young is an expert on Internet addiction.
