Internet addiction among young people summer period frequency. Recently, some parents treated their children out of the urgent desire of Internet addiction at all costs to send their children to a variety of treatment agencies to "try to quit."

the current variety of Internet addiction treatment markets: some people with psychological counseling to chat with patients, it was put together in patients with closed "military training", it was the spirit of drug use for treatment of patients ... ... these people, there are psychologist with qualifications, some areas of mental health physicians, as well as the fundamental does not have any qualifications, but have done or "some knowledge" psychological treatment.

China Youth College for Political Research forensic psychiatric expert Wang believes that in order to standardize the treatment of Internet addiction, we must have to answer the "What is Internet addiction." However, on "What is Internet addiction", the experts and scholars all over the world so far are not an authoritative conclusion.

are indications that the issue of young people, 60% ~ 70% of the "cause" and the networks. In about 40 million Internet users in China minors, what symptoms can be called "Internet addiction"? What degree of "Internet addiction" can be judged to be "sick"?

"At present, treatment-related basis is still small, but also be studied in depth. However, the diagnostic criteria is the basis of other studies. "June 15, Beijing University Institute of Mental Health (the Sixth Hospital) TIAN Cheng-hua, deputy director of Physicians, told this reporter, related to the initial development of the expert group has been "pathological Internet" diagnostic criteria, the final standard is expected to be completed next year, reported to the National Institute of the Ministry of Health or professional validation.

"pathological formal adoption of Internet standards, once approved the Ministry of Health or the professional bodies will play an authoritative role of technical guidance." TIAN Cheng said.

previous concern of the Beijing Military Region General Hospital, part of experts to study the development of the "clinical diagnostic criteria for Internet Addiction" (hereinafter referred to as "Internet addiction standards"), they have not been approved by the Ministry of Health. But the makers, General Hospital of Beijing Military Region, the medical director of addiction, psychological development of the China Youth Taoran base firmly believe that the person in charge, "Internet addiction standard" epoch-making significance.

mild "Internet addiction" is not the scope of medicine?

According TIAN Cheng-hua, the related work of the Expert Group is making every effort to strive for an early formulation of the authoritative " pathological Internet, "technical standards. Not familiar with the use of non-governmental expert group of "Internet addiction" to call, only some of the symptoms enough to re-group for the study, "Comparison of the scope of light is not medical."

" 'net addiction' is not a medical term . At present, a number of 'net addiction' standards, there is no recognized medical profession. "TIAN Cheng-hua, explains," Internet addiction "or" a thing (matter) addiction "recognized in the existing classification of mental illness are can not find. "Addiction" is abandoned by the World Health Organization medical terminology, but in general the language is still widely used.

It is reported that the diagnosis of the expert group to study the term "pathological Internet." After preliminary findings of the study to assess carefully a lot of experts of the community. The Expert Group will be the next step based on this work before the end of the end for the National Test, next year may come from the Ministry of Health called the results of identification, will be formally adopted and published in the national standardization system.

had previously been on the media speculation a lot of heated discussions of "Internet addiction standards," said Hua TIAN Cheng , this standard did not receive national health departments and professional bodies recognition. "Standard no one can do, the question is whether the industry can be recognized."

TIAN Cheng-hua said, according to the current research work was "very cautious." With a child assessed by two experts, in some cases, the experts will be heated because some cases of academic discussion. For example, some children and obsessed with the Internet is also accompanied by depression, emotional pain, whether it is a depression, or "pathological Internet"?

TIAN Cheng-hua, according to presentations, the relatively clear-cut way to determine if the patients had depression before, and then indulged in the network, it will be diagnosed with depression rather than pathological Internet. Some children of the anxiety and depression did not simply love to play games, but a long time seriously affected the normal interpersonal relationships, social function or in violation of laws and regulations, are "pathological Internet."

TIAN Cheng-Hua stressed that "pathological Internet" will be the symptoms of strict standards, the seriousness of the standards, course criteria and exclusion criteria, the need to first rule out other mental disorders can be diagnosed.

At present, the Group of Experts on the "pathological Internet" attributed to mental disorders of impulse control disorders, and pathological gambling, pathological stealing belongs to a class, do not belong to the medical terminology of mental illness. Public language of "Internet addiction" a wide range of performance and the extent of which will be diagnosed as a mental disorder of "pathological Internet", in fact, only one small part of a more serious person.

TIAN Cheng-hua, according to presentations, not "pathological Internet" diagnostic criteria, but the existence of the "Internet addiction", the psychological barriers are not mental disorders, not necessarily to the hospital.

different types of "Internet addiction in patients with" can be treated by the hospital?

"Studies have 'pathological the use of 'network addiction and then go to the impulse control disorder that subjects lagged too far behind. "Beijing Military Region General Hospital, the medical director of addiction, psychological development of young people in China responsible Taoran Base told reporters.

in Taoran It seems that "pathological Internet" use the "pathological gambling" was named. "If you want to sound, I can call pathological, but standards should be in line with the trend of science and technology. With the development of brain science and the future, 'impulsive control disorder' may have to removed. When I named one of the opposition, the name 'net addiction' have the nature of betting, there are great risks. "

Taoran said that he was aware of" addiction "is a statement of denunciation. However, he introduced this year, held May 24 in APA (American Psychological Society) annual meeting, 70% of people are authorized to "non-substance addiction" and "substance addiction" to separate, which is recognized "as addiction, "the statement," I firmly believe that psychiatry in 2012 there will be 'non-substance addiction' to this section. "

" standards and international standards should be. "Tao said.

in Taoran It appears that Internet Addiction is divided into three parts. Statistics of his cases, 40% of the use of a simple fascination with the network; there are nearly 30% of people with depression, anxiety and other emotional state. And 32% of the patients themselves have attention deficit, hyperactivity and other issues, so easy to indulge in the network.

"because of Internet addiction to depression, or internet addiction depression has increased, with no clear boundaries." Taoran that these different types of Internet addiction patients can be treated by the hospital.

diagnostic criteria is an essential element of other studies

"you are willing to send him to a mental hospital? You do feel that he is mentally ill?"

"I do not think he is mentally ill, but are broadcast on TV and the Internet addiction criteria, six hours a day, continuous 3 months."

Recently, this reporter received a A single mother's phone, she told reporters on the "to indulge in the network's son admitted to a mental hospital" after the experience, the reporter and her dialogue with the above.

the single mothers called "Internet addiction standards", for that in November 2008 by the Beijing Military Region General Hospital, the medical director of addiction, psychological development of the China Youth Taoran base charge to the public "network diagnostic criteria and treatment of addiction." The seven diagnostic criteria, including symptoms, of which, "the average daily use of network time a row or more than six hours to reach, and in accordance with the standard has been reached or symptoms for more than three months (non-work and study purposes)," the course of the controversy surrounding the standard.

, however, the standards group Taoran in many places for the official statement was misread. An interview with our reporter, "addicted network standard" process, often a number of experts in the field of mental health, the doctor asked: "is not already out of the diagnostic criteria of Internet addiction it? Net addiction should have been attributed to mental health I had, right?"

Taoran also told reporters that his Internet addiction has been written into a number of places in secondary school textbooks. In fact, this standard is adopted by the Ministry of Health approval of the People's Liberation Army General Logistics Department, at present the Ministry of Health has not yet been made on the standards.

Just one week ago, a media report said, "Mental Health, Peking University Institute (six homes) TIAN Cheng-hua, deputy director of the development has been initially 'pathological Internet' diagnostic criteria for the National Test and improve the provide the basis for the standard and said that 'pathological Internet' standards or to be introduced next year. "This is a November 2008 release Taoran Internet addiction group standards, the public appears in the media the" second "standard.

"online a few days ago I saw that after the standard 75% similarity with me, this is a tort. You see, at that time" The Times "has reported, 'China is the first the development of network standards' (the original text should be translated as: China has the potential to become the world's first network of addiction to the country for clinical disease. "The Times" November 11, 2008) "

Taoran said that he was the subject of research from the National Natural Science Foundation funding. "I named the diagnostic criteria of light carried out on three months, the entire research close to 4 years, spent several hundred million. You can be reported, why use taxpayers money to pursue the two standards?"

Taoran told reporters in the production of the "Internet Addiction Disorder diagnostic criteria and treatment of" paper, the research phase of the three cases are 110 cases, 408 cases, 150 cases, for a total of 668 cases, he said, for the development of this standard, group studied a total of more than a thousand cases.

all over the country, has been gradually began to treat a mental hospital "in patients with Internet addiction," but a matter of fact, so far, health administrative departments for the network is not the prevention and treatment of addiction to formal rules and "focal point."

"I personally feel that the diagnostic criteria of Internet addiction can not be an expert or the end of several experts on the publication of their own research, it should be or should be the lead executive body of the Government to do." China Youth College for Political Research forensic psychiatric Wang has been the direction of experts on the issue of youth Internet addiction research done specifically, he had an interview with this newspaper, pointed out that "Internet addiction" is a comprehensive social issues, relevant departments have not been on the net to make the provisions of addiction treatment "can be understandable. "

in Korea, "online game addiction" phenomenon has also been widespread concern, even though publicity has not yet developed national standards, but for Internet Addiction Prevention of the work of young people, linked by a multi-sectoral co-ordination. Korean Culture and Sports and Tourism Ministry of Culture Industry Promotion Agency units (non-civil service), Korea Health and Welfare Ministry for the Family, South Korea and so the Chief Security part of it.

"Internet addiction as a social problem, very complicated. In addition to the health sector, but also cultural, educational and many other factors." Wang said.

Internet addiction among young people the summer vacation period frequency. Recently, some parents treated their children out of the urgent desire of Internet addiction at all costs to send their children to a variety of treatment agencies to "try to quit."

the current variety of Internet addiction treatment markets: some people with psychological counseling to chat with patients, it was put together in patients with closed "military training", it was the spirit of drug use for treatment of patients ... ... these people, there are psychologist with qualifications, some areas of mental health physicians, as well as the fundamental does not have any qualifications, but have done or "some knowledge" psychological treatment.
