I am addicted to communication. I daren’t look it up on Google because it is probably a recognised condition somewhere like Silicon Valley and realising that would just make my condition worse.

I’ve known for a while that any spare moment i get – waiting for a train, walking to the drinks machine, going to the loo… i just can’t help but get my Blackberry out.

I check emails, compose emails, look at the website and generally do anything other than just sit back, relax and amuse myself in my own mind – which is a shame because that’s something i used to be good at.

It’s got so bad now that if i’m on my own, with no blackberry i feel kind of lost – cut off and i find my own company is no longer good enough. I need communication. Help!
