A teenager is to undergo psychiatric treatment after becoming addicted to her mobile phone. Like
the worst type of addicts, Caroline regularly blows all her spending money. I know it sounds like
a silly addiction but it is real to me, she said. When I hear my phone beeping with a text message
I am all smiles and it makes me happy. When I dont have any credit left I become depressed. I
havent got enough money for proper food and I have to borrow it. Her parents have become so
worried that next week she is due to begin a course of treatment from a specialist. She first
revealed her craving to her doctor, who advised her to switch the phone on the silent mode, put it
in a cupboard and forget about it. But he has now referred her for more psychiatric care after the
scale of the problem became apparent.
Caroline said: I have become protective of the phone. I cant let anyone take it from me and I
check where it is every two minutes. A leading psychologist has classified Carolines plight as
technology addition, in which sufferers experience a high when they receive a message bleep
from their mobile. It is like the first flush of love when you receive an e-mail or text, you feel
good. Caroline became hooked at 12 after her parents gave her a mobile for Christmas. Since then
she has spent all her pocket money on phone cards.
