Writing in an article for-Internet Australasia magazine, psychologist Morris Jones explains

%;2. J§jH-Jr ^'

that, as is the case with all addictions, Internet addiction Is essentially "social" In nature. In other j

words, the needs that underlie the addiction are unmet Interpersonal needs: to be recognized, to

belong; to be powerful, and to be loved. While all addICts are driven by unmet'lnterpe"rsonar

needs, the exact nature of these needs and the rnanner.of-sattsfvtng them seems to vary.

Therefore, men typically become addicted to online sources of Information overload, aggressive interactive games, and sexually explicit materials. Women, {4.}i seem to be motivated by a need to search for supportive

friendships and romantic relatlonshlos. Women welcome the fact that the Internet allows them to hide their appearance while searching for such things. It seems to be a natural conclusion that the stereotypes men and women have in socletv are also played out in cyberspace.

Everyone gets a cold at one time or another. In fact, most people get at least one cold every year. So, with the frequency of the common cold, why are there still so many

misconceptions about them?

First, a big misconception is that you can catch a cold jfyou get cold or chilly. How menv

times have you heard someone say, "Wear a hat or you'll catch a cold?" Colds are caused by viruses. You catch a cold by touching a surface that has the virus on it and then touching your eyes or nose or by breathing in drops of a cold virus.

. .

Another misconception about colds is that milk and other dairy products make a cold worse. This is also not true. Milk Is a protein and is broken down In the stomach. It doesn't go to your nose or lungs where cold symptoms are most noticeable.

Finally, people believe that you should eat more to help cure a cold: "Feed a cotd: starve a fever." Although it won't make your cold worse, eating more will neither make your cold better nor help you get over it more quickly.
