The study, which questioned 1,000 UK teenagers aged 12 \u2013 18, unveiled a worrying trend of growing numbers of young people constantly striving to find the next thrill, mostly via technology and social media.<\/p>\n<h2>Teenagers would most struggle to give up texting<\/h2>\n<p>When asked which behaviours they could abstain from, UK teens said they would most struggle living without texting (66%), followed by social networking (58%), junk food (28%) and alcohol (6%). The report found that the average teen checks social media 11 times a days, sends 17 text messages and takes a \u2018selfie\u2019 picture every four days.<\/p>\n<p>This constant pursuit of stimulation, peer approval, instant gratification, and elements of narcissism are all potential indicators of addictive behaviour. The study highlights that parents across the UK are inadvertently becoming \u2018co-dependents\u2019 enabling their child\u2019s addictions by providing them with cash albeit with the best of intentions. Parents are not necessarily aware of what the money is being spent on.<\/p>\n<h2>Teenagers spend \u00a362 a month on junk food, tech and alcohol<\/h2>\n<p>UK teenagers spend an average of \u00a315.81 a week funding their various vices, meaning that they have to find \u00a362 a month before they even consider paying for other pursuits such as sport or other recreational activities.<\/p>\n<p>Shockingly, 14% of teens have lied to their families to get money to fund this area of spending, with 7% having gone as far as stealing from a relative! Regionally the report shows that a staggering 29% of teenagers in London have either lied to or stolen from their parents to fund their vices.<\/p>\n<p>The growing number of ever-changing, ever-updating tech and gadgets available to UK teens in 2015 run alongside established potentially addictive activities such as alcohol-use and consumption of junk food \u2013 creating an environment where young people experience the compulsion to consume and engage more than they can legitimately fund, leading to desperate often risky behaviour \u2013 a hallmark of addiction.<\/p>\n<h3>John Dicey, Global Managing Director &amp; Senior Therapist of Allen Carr Addiction Clinics comments;<\/h3>\n<p> \u201c<em>The findings of this report are cause for concern and highlight a generation of young people exhibiting many of the hallmarks of addictive behaviour. The explosion of technology we have seen since the late 90\u2019s offers incredible opportunities to our youth \u2013 the constant stimulation provided by access to the internet for example can be a good or a bad thing. There\u2019s a price to pay. This study indicates that huge numbers of young people are developing compulsions and behaviours that they\u2019re not entirely in control of and cannot financially support.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Unless we educate our young people as to the dangers of constant stimulation and consumption, we are sleepwalking towards an epidemic of adulthood addiction in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dicey continues \u201c<em>Make no mistake \u2013 technology and social media shouldn\u2019t be demonised \u2013 they\u2019re incredibly engaging and useful in our everyday lives \u2013 the objective of our study was to establish whether youngsters were moving beyond &quot;normal use&quot; and might therefore become pre-disposed to move on to other addictions later in life.<\/em>\u201c<\/p>\n<p>The abundance of technology that UK teens can access seems to be creating a generation of \u2018tech addicts\u2019!<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore one third of UK teens (32%) admit they check social media more than 10 times a day. The report also found that the average teen checks social media 11 times day, which equals once every 1.5 hours they are awake.<\/p>\n<p>UK teens are also avid takers of \u2018selfies\u2019, with over a quarter taking more than 10 a month. The average teen takes 7.4 selfies a month, equalling one every four days on average. It is worrying that 72% of youngsters remain oblivious to the dangers of over-use and potential addiction to social media, apps, games, and technology and don\u2019t believe it is possible to develop an addiction to technology. Interestingly 28% of youngsters readily accept this point.<\/p>\n<h2>Funding: Money and Time<\/h2>\n<p>Mobile phones (79%), junk food (44%) and alcohol (9%) are the three activities teenagers were most likely to spend the most time on. One in five (20%) of teenagers admitted that they had drunk alcohol in the past seven days.<\/p>\n<p>Teenagers invest most of their disposable income into funding their mobile use and social media activity \u2013 the average teen spends \u00a36.64 a week on texting, mobile phones and data, Junk food spending comes second with alcohol coming in as the third most expensive vice.<\/p>\n<h2>Shortening Attention Spans<\/h2>\n<p>The plethora of technology available to teens is also having a worrying impact on their attention spans. 1 in 4 teens have over 20 apps on their smartphones, with the average teen having 13 apps on their device. The constant search for the \u2018next thing\u2019 is evidenced in how they use apps \u2013 46% admitted that they stop using or delete an app less than a week after using it, freeing up storage space for a new app.<\/p>\n<h2>UK habits by region<\/h2>\n<p>There are huge regional variations on the habits of UK teenagers. East Anglian teens are the most social media obsessed \u2013 16% admit they check social media more than 30 times a day. The South East is the \u2018selfie\u2019 capital of the UK \u2013 1 in 4 admit they take more than 20 selfies a month.<\/p>\n<p>London teenagers have the shortest attention spans when it comes to apps \u2013 57% delete or stop using an app less than a week from the initial download.26% of youngsters have used e-cigarettes and the study shows teenagers in the East Midlands are the most likely to have \u2018vaped\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Young people in the North East would have the most difficulty giving up junk food for a month (37%) and they also spend more than any other region on alcohol and cigarettes a week \u2013 their average spends coming in at twice the national average.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"button red hvr top_margin\" href=\"\/easyway-get-free-technology-digital-phone-addiction\/\"
