¿Qué es entonces lo que consideramos un ciberadicto? Pues quien teniendo una trayectoria de vida en la que el uso de Internet representaba una actividad compatible con sus relaciones personales, con su trabajo y no le producía sentimientos de culpabilidad, cambia su comportamiento por un exceso de tiempo dedicado a navegar, jugar, comunicarse o comprar por Internet y se transforma en un problema para el sujeto y las personas de su entorno. 4, record 1, Spanish, - ciberadicto
