Nomophobia


Alexander Graham Bell - " Mr. Watson. Come here !"
These are the words which laid the foundation of the world of telecommunication.

Mobile phones have revolutionized the world of communication. They have made life so easy that earth seems to contract into one small network-ball.
Mobile phones are no longer a luxury, rather they have become a necessity.

Now, just imagine a day without your mobile phone. You will feel something missing in life..as if you have lost contact with the world. Such fear of being away from your mobile phone or being out of mobile phone contact is Nomophobia.

Few days back, I read an article on this. Researches are being done on this syndrome. People have become so addicted to mobile-phones that a fear has grown in them of losing it.
Now who are the one who suffers most from this phobia - men or women ?
You must have guessed that they are women because they are the one who are most talkative.
But study shows that men are the bigger victims.
Mobile phones have plagued the life so much that people are afraid to switch off their mobiles also.

Well thats true I am quite a bit fascinated about my mobile. I love to be with it. Man is a illusion. Its just an illusion which has a programed artificial intelligence which responds to and through electro-magnetic pulses. So these studies and analysis are all fallacies dear. all are non existing illusions.
