Similar to other addictions, those suffering from Internet addiction use the virtual fantasy world to connect with real people through the Internet, as a substitution for real-life human connection, which they are unable to achieve normally.

How a person consider as an Internet Addict?

         Some Internet users may develop an emotional attachment to online friends and activities they create on their computer screens. Internet users may enjoy aspects of the Internet that allow them to meet, socialize, and exchange ideas through the use of chat rooms, social networking websites, or "virtual communities". But other Internet users spend endless hours on using internet specifically in social media.  In their minds their only task in their life is to use the internet because of so being addict.

         Internet addiction may results in personal or self being, family, academics, may cause to financial problems, and occupational problems that are also characteristics of other addictions. Impairments of real life relationships are disrupted as a result of excessive use of the Internet. Individuals suffering from Internet addiction spend more time in solitary seclusion, spend less time of socializing with family or other people around in his or her lives, and are often viewed as socially awkward. Those suffering from Internet addiction may attempt to conceal the amount of spending time in online, which results in distrust and the disturbance of quality in once stable relationships.

Those at highest risk for creation of a secret life are those who suffer from low-self esteem feelings of inadequacy, and fear of disapproval.
