Kubantu abaninzi, ukunciphisa ixesha lescreen kunzima kodwa kuyenzeka. Kwaye ngelixa abantu abaninzi bechitha iiyure kwi-intanethi yonke imihla-ngakumbi ukuba umsebenzi wabo uyayifuna-ayisiyiyo eyona nto ibangela inkxalabo. Kodwa isixa esiqinisekileyo sophando sibonisa ukuba, kwabanye abantu, ukuxhomekeka kwi-intanethi sisiyobisi sokwenyani.

Ukuba ubala ngokwengqondo ixesha lakho lesikrini i-RN, yazi ukuba umlutha we-intanethi ubandakanya ngaphezulu kokusebenzisa nje i-intanethi okunzima. "Le meko ikwabelana ngeempawu ezininzi kunye neziyobisi zemveli," utshilo uNeeraj Gandotra, MD, ugqirha wezifo zengqondo kunye negosa lezonyango kwiQela lezeMpilo laseDelphi. Ukuqala, umntu onomlutha we-intanethi unokufumana iimpawu zokurhoxa ezinje ngoxinzelelo, okanye iimpawu zemozulu ezinje ngoxinzelelo okanye uxinzelelo ukuba abakwazi ukuya kwi-Intanethi. Ikwaphazamisana nobomi bemihla ngemihla, ngoko ke abantu abachaphazelekayo bangayihoyi umsebenzi, uthethathethwano loluntu, ukukhathalela usapho, okanye olunye uxanduva, ukuya kwi-Intanethi.

Kwaye njengokubakho kweziyobisi, iziyobisi kwi-intanethi zichaphazela ingqondo. Xa umntu onomlutha we-intanethi engena kwi-intanethi, ingqondo yakhe ifumana ukukhululwa kwe-dopamine. Xa bengasebenzi kwi-intanethi, bayaphoswa kukuqiniswa yimichiza kwaye banokuba noxinzelelo, uxinzelelo kunye nokuphelelwa lithemba, ngokophando olupapashwe kwi UPhononongo lwangoku loNyango. Banokuphuhlisa ukunyamezelana nokuya kwi-intanethi, kwaye kuya kufuneka batyikitye ngakumbi nangakumbi ukufezekisa ukonyusa imithambo-luvo.

Iziyobisi ezikwi-Intanethi zihlala zibizwa ngokuba kukuphazamiseka kweziyobisi kwi-intanethi, kodwa ayaziwa ngokusemthethweni njengengxaki yengqondo kwiDiagnostic kunye neNcwadi yeNgxelo yeNgxaki yokuPhazamiseka kwengqondo (DSM-5), isikhokelo se-APA esisebenza ukumisela ukuphazamiseka kwengqondo.. Kodwa, ukucaca, oko akuthethi ukuba umlutha we-intanethi awuyiyo "yokwenene," nje ukuba akukho mvumelwano phakathi kwendlela yokuchaza ngayo. Kwaye, umlutha we-intanethi awuzange ubonakaliswe kude kube ngu-1995, ngoko uphando luselutsha, kwaye iingcali zempilo zahlulahlula ngendlela ekumele zihlelwe ngayo.

Ukuba uyazibuza ukuba loluphi uhlobo lwezinto ezenziwa kwi-Intanethi ezikhobokisa uninzi lwe-Intanethi, umdlalo we-Intanethi kunye nemithombo yeendaba zentlalo zimbini eziqhelekileyo zemo. (Eyeleleneyo: Ukusetyenziswa kweMedia yeNtlalo kukukruna iipateni zakho zokulala)

Ukongeza, abantu abaninzi baba likhoboka lokusebenzisa i-intanethi ukuze baphile ngaphandle kwezazisi ezingezizo, utshilo uGqirha Gandotra. "Banokwenza ii-personas ezikwi-Intanethi kwaye bazenze ngathi ngomnye umntu." Amaxesha amaninzi, aba bantu basebenzisa oku njengendlela yokuzinyanga ngokwabo iimeko ezinjengokukhathazeka okanye ukudakumba, ngendlela efanayo nenxila elinokuthi lisele ngayo ukuze libe ndindisholo iimvakalelo, utsho.

Ke, uwuphatha njani umlutha we-intanethi? Unyango lokuziphatha kwengqondo, uhlobo lonyango lokuthetha, lunyango oludumileyo lwe-intanethi. Kwaye ukungenelela kwezonyango kunokunyanga iimpawu ezibangelwayo eziza nokusetyenziswa kwe-intanethi ngokugqithiseleyo, njengeliso elomileyo okanye iipatheni zokutya ezingaqhelekanga, utsho uDkt Gandotra.

Kuba wonke umntu ekwi-intanethi *kakhulu* kakhulu–abanye abantu bade "bathumele imiyalezo yokulala"–kunokuba nzima ukuqaphela ukuba wena okanye umntu omaziyo unomlutha, kodwa kukho iimpawu ezimbalwa ezilumkiso ekufuneka uzijonge. Ukunciphisa ubuthongo ukuze uchithe ixesha kwi-intanethi, ukuzikhusela malunga nokusetyenziswa kwe-intanethi xa ubuzwa, kwaye ukungahoyi uxanduva zonke ziimpawu zokukhotyokiswa kwi-intanethi kwaye kukho umntu ofuna uncedo.
