Perhaps as more people find free and accessible services on the Internet a better medium to express their feelings and get peer support, his waiting room is emptying? It may be time to put people who spend more than five hours in a bar talking to their friends into psychiatric care too. Or maybe he just has not yet discovered the connectedness and value of virtual relationship. I think i will just text him some urls.

I got up at 12:30pm today and have been online, minus a couple hours all day. This is an average day for me. My internet was down recently and I felt weird. I couldnt relax. And when I took my Macbook to a wireless cafe, I felt relieved. After an hour away from the internet, I know there are updates in my Google Reader, more emails, Facebook updates and Myspace movements and I get fidgety if I cant check them. Can we share a ward?
