Chances are if you know a teenager, they have a texting habit. A new study shows that some teens send more than a thousand messages a month and for some, the habit has crossed the line into an addiction. Doctors say that texting can provide instant gratification to the brain's pleasure center that releases the mood-improving chemical dopamine, but such a feeling can lead to abuse. Some teens may even experience withdrawal symptons if they try to stop texting cold turkey.
Do you know a txting addict? How bad is the addiction? Do u think they could stop?
