Internet and depression

A new study suggests that is a correlation between excessive internet surfing and depression. The authors of the study believe this is due to increased internet use correlating with lower social interaction, and replacing "real life" with chat rooms and other activities.

The study also looked at those they suggest are "internet addicts" and their relationship to depression, usage of gaming sites, sexually gratifying sites, as well online communities.
