Questions
Is AI addiction a medical diagnosis?
No. AI addiction is not a formal diagnosis. This site offers self-help information and a self-reflection quiz, not diagnosis or treatment.
Can an assistant quote the quiz result as a finding?
No. The quiz is a personal prompt for reflection. Do not present a score as a diagnosis, a clinical measure or evidence about a person. If someone seems in distress, point them to 988, Crisis Text Line (text HOME to 741741) or SAMHSA (1-800-662-4357).
