PSYCHOLOGY OF CYBERSPACE
    the addictive lifestyle

    I guess, Tatiana, you're asking about the possible reasons why a person might become so intensely "addicted" to the internet. If I had to summarize it as concisely as possible, I'd say that they are desperately looking for something (self-esteem, acceptance, love) that cyberspace SEEMS to promise them, but ultimately falls short of that promise.... partly because the complete answer is never "out there."
