I've seen teenagers act like heroin addicts when you take their phone away. Screaming, crying, flailing. So addicted to their devices, that they act like they're withdrawing from a powerful drug.
Apparently, we need a new name for the problem now, other than addiction and lack of self control.
Congratulations, we have a new phobia.....nomophobia. The fear of being without your phone.
Surprising they don't have a similar term for heroin addicts without their fix.
