Do you think heavy internet use could cause depression or do you think depressed people are drawn to the internet?

Asked by RareDenver (13173points) February 7th, 2010

A recent study has shown a link between depression and extreme internet use but what it hasn’t been able to say is which came first so to speak. I’m of the mind that depressed people might be more likely to use the internet heavily rather than the internet causing depression. What do you guys think?
