Nomophobia is fear of smart phone deprivation

Rogers has produced a survey of smart phone use that indicates our  reliance on these devices is just intense.  We like to sleep with them apparently. Not too cuddly but what the heck. The whole phenomenon has a name — Nomophobia — according to Rogers. Nomophobia is the state of stress caused by being away room your smart phone. The survey says as many as  65 per cent of users feel naked without their smart phone and Internet access. A little over half sleep with their device next to them, and 82 per cent use their smart phone in the bathroom. Over half say they check their mobile device before brushing their teeth in the morning.
