The study indicated that stress levels induced by the average case of
nomophobia are similar in severity to ‘wedding day jitters’ and trips to
the dentists. Ten percent of those questioned said they needed to be
contactable at all times because of work. It is, however, arguable that
the word ‘phobia’ is misused and that in the majority of cases it is
only a normal anxiety. More than one in two nomophobes never switch off
their mobile phones. The study prompted two editorial columns authored
by those who minimize their mobile phone use or choose not to own one at
all, treating the condition with levity or outright disbelief.
Are you a nomophobe or not? What do you think about it? Is it widespread in our country or not?
I really like the video. It`s so funny:))) If you add some thrilling music in the video, people would look like zombies:))
ReplyDeleteI think I wouldn`t be able to give up my laptop and the Internet, not my phone. I don`t like talking much on the phone.
I don't like talking much on the phone too. It's a complete disaster for my family when I don't have a phone. Because the mother know what we have to eat or where are some things. For me it's very difficult without a laptop or the Internet.Because I couldn't publish these materials or read all posts:)))
