I also have a light internet addiction. In the lines of food, I don't get hungry often so I'm okay with that. But internet is a problem for me, as I always have a constant access to it. At school I would always use the computers in whatever class I was in, even when I wasn't supposed to be. I guess this rubbed off into my adult life, now I'm on the internet for hours every day. I am being productive and if not for the internet, I wouldn't know half of what I do now. As a matter of fact, I can learn more from the internet in a month than I have from a year at school. With relation to topics that are actually relevant to real life, not how to do an algebraic trinomial equation for X to reach Y within the inquisitional indent of Shakespeare's epiphanies on life's biological plant matter sun close to the moon, e.t.c
The internet is a wonderful place full of knowledge. But too much is not good. It's taken a serious strain on my eyes and sleeping habits. Not a day has passed that I haven't woken up at 5 AM and gone to bed at 11 PM or 12 AM.
The only method I've found effective is to cut yourself off. Go camping or do some sort of outdoor activity to take your mind off things. It really clears your train of thought and makes you feel better. Being inside isn't good either, where I live dust accumulates quite fast and I am allergic to it, which does take a toll on my health.
I have learned to cope with it over the years though and I'm feeling better every day, even with the constant advance of technology, making it easier for everyone to access the internet and technology. It's an unfortunate cycle.
EDIT: Sorry, I thought the title meant addiction to the internet AND food! I guess I'll just keep this here as it took me a while to type.
