Dear Mr. Shishchuk.
I’m writing for help. I’m only 14, but I think I’m seriously ill, as I have become a computer addict. Actually, I have been a computer addict since I was 11. I spend more and more time in front of my computer. It takes me away from my everyday life duties. I don’t care about my marks at school any more, and my grades have gone from 3.8 to 1.3 now. I have been skipping meals. I don’t sleep at night and fall asleep at school. My back hurts me badly. I have lost track of time. Mum says that I use my computer much more than necessary and it is not normal, but I can’t control its use, though I’ve tried to do it. My parents are threatening that they’ll take my computer away, it drives me mad… Yours, Ben Rogers.
