Introduction:
Television addiction is a disorder where the subject has a compulsion to watch television. The compulsion can be extremely difficult to control in many cases. It has many parallels to other forms of addiction, such as addiction to drugs or gambling, which create an altered mental state in the subject.
Disagreement on definition :
Although television viewing habits have been studied for decades, there is no commonly accepted checklist to diagnose television addiction. It is however, widely recognized as a real problem that people face .
Television Addiction - What is it?
It is noted that the average person spends about three hours a day sitting in front of the TV set, which is half of their leisure time. And, it is known that heavy viewers report watching eight hours a day. The question is, “Are these people addicted to the television?”
First, let’s define an addiction. It is said that addiction is characterized by spending an unusually large amount of time using a substance that is addictive; finding oneself using it more often than intended; thinking about reducing the use, and are making repeated unsuccessful attempts to reduce it; giving up social activities to use the substance, and reporting withdrawal symptoms when one does achieve stopping the use.
Television can teach and amuse, and it does provide needed distraction and escape. Yet, the difficulty arises when one strongly senses the need to stop viewing as much, and yet find they are unable to reduce viewing.
Television Addiction - What are the Effects?
In 1997, 700 Japanese children were rushed to a hospital to be treated with epileptic seizures. These seizures were later attributed to a program

which was aired that involved an exaggerated version of the Pokemon
game that had flashing colorful lights.
Laboratory experiments1 have also been done to study people’s reactions to TV by monitoring brain waves by the use of EEG (electroencephalograph). Those who participated in the study carried a beeper. They were signaled six to eight times a day randomly over the period of a week. When they heard the beep, they were to write down what they were doing and how they were feeling. People who were watching TV when beeped reported feeling relaxed and passive. The studies showed less mental stimulation as measured by alpha brain-wave production during viewing TV than if these participants had been reading. After the television set was turned off, this study showed the participants were still very relaxed and passive as if all energy had left them.
This suggests1 that TV viewing has a numbing effect, and reaction to the body is likened to that of a tranquilizer. Drowsiness occurs, and one may even experience depression as the viewing continues. A person actually disengages from real life becoming immersed in what is being shown on the screen which, in turn, causes excessive viewing; more so than anticipated in the beginning.
Effects on life
Television addiction becomes a problem when a subject does not want to watch TV, but experiences an uncontrollable compulsion to start or continue watching. The subject may not accomplish tasks or goals that he or she feels are important.
Another negative effect of TV addiction is that people often feel withdrawal symptoms when they try to go for long periods without watching TV. Many viewers may feel anxious for a time as they try to adjust to living without TV's relaxing effects
Coupled with other factors, habitual television watching, over long periods of time, has been known to cause, in some people, a lack of motivation and feelings of listlessness, depression, and anger.

People watch television more than any other activity, 4 hours a day on average in the United States. (That's 1460 hours annually, while the average work year is about 2000 hours.) For reading and other activities the figures did not go above 30 mins.
Today, many people watch TV, and voices have been raised claiming that it is becoming a serious problem. By the time an American child enters school he or she has watched thousands of hours of commercials and can identify hundreds of logos while possibly not being able to read
Television Addiction - How to Avoid It :
Is there hope from becoming struck with television addiction? Yes, start here.
• Keep a record of how much TV you watch and when you watch. Do this for one week.
• List all the other fun activities you can do at home instead of watching TV. Place your list on your refrigerator so you can check this list BEFORE you turn on the TV. Consider fun things to do as a family, household projects you’d like to complete, outside activities, reading, exercise, etc.
• Set a limit for how much TV you will watch in one week. Record your time and stick to your commitment.
• Commit to exercising whenever you watch TV, such as walking on a treadmill, riding a stationary bike, etc.
• Consider removing your TV for a set period of time. You might find yourself talking to your family again instead of watching the TV so much.
Conclusion:
In the end, we know the dangers of the T.V in terms of social, health and physical, psychological, and I hope everyone to maintain their safety not to watch T.V excessively so as not to regret in the end.
