A majority of Singaporeans are constantly thinking that their mobile phones are ringing, reported Sin Chew Daily.It said that a random survey of 50 people found that some 80% of them suffered from the mobile phone syndrome.
They would check their mobile phones incessantly to see if they were ringing or if there were any missed calls or messages.
A psychiatrist blamed this syndrome on stress."Such people should learn to relax to avoid stress taking over their daily life," said the psychiatrist. The psychiatrist advised sufferers to switch off their mobile phones or avoid answering their phones for a period of time.

Indeed i agree that Singaporean are dealing with massive amount of stress in studies and work which would likely lead to the mobile syndrome. With the active lifestyle that we're leading, it's difficult to get away from this syndrome unless we get ourself a long break from our work or studies eg. Going for vacations or spending luxury time alone. However, once we get back to work the same old thing would reoccur again. All in all, i feel that it depends on the individual himself/herself whether if they're easily paranoid or being too stress out. As for myself, i do sometimes check on my phone but not to often, maybe it is because i still don't feel much stress yet.
