Depression, anxiety and the Internet

On: The Internet Might Not Be So Depressing

Seriously,

1. Depression is closely related to anxiety. As the novelty of the Internet wears out, it stops creating that extra anxiety and stress.
2. Dot-coms have been causing great deal of crazines before the crash. People were over-motivated by stock options and exorbitant salaries. Too much work doesn't make you any healthier.
3. The very knowledge that the Internet could cause depression may have played its role. Increased self-awareness of potential depression victims may have helped to decrease the risk of it actually happening.

Sorry for my bad English,
need to go get some sleep.
