I thought there wasnt any proof what cellphones cause anything? Maybe addiction but nothing that can actually harm you.
And this is the wrong forum.

u cant actually be addicted to mobile phone... but you most definately can be harmed. i feel like the inside of my head i gonna implode sometimes...

yu may feel like that, but it could also be attributed to a billion other things... and no, i don't think that there has been any actual scientific proof that cell phones cause such health problems.

EDIT: like i myself suffer from asthma, sleep apnea, low blood pressure, headaches, sinus/ear/eye pressure/pains, and chronic fatigue and stress

but i never use a cellphone... maybe once every few months if i need to borrow a friend's to call home or something, but that's it.

well here in finland there are people addicted to cellphones. well not maybe the phones but on using them.
you cant imagine the small teenage girls sending sms's all the time. it was even on the newspapers how teenagers are addictoed to using a cell phone.

and if your head feeel like exploding. well go to the doctor? i dont got anything like that, and anything bad coming from the phones hasnt been proven atleast to my knowledge. so if you have a link to somethinf that proves anything else, please post it.

i need to go to my training now
bbl

i thought in europe cell phones are so popular because there arn't as many landlines?

I can't remember where I heard it from but I heard that mobile phone radiation causes infertility in males as they are in the pockets and close to their testicles. Also, I was told by a spiritual healer that mobile phones cause altering of ones DNA. I don't know how but none the less I try not to use it much. They're evil: cause unknown health defects which may be realised worldwide in a few decades (like tobacco) and chew up a lot of your income and time, therefore taking away the opportunity cost where you could put the money to a better cause.

well i dont know about the other countries but in finland we got landlines everywhere. Every house had a normal phone.
though there are the families who use strickly cell phones, but as far as i know there aint many

There is no scientific evidence for your hypothesis. That doesn't totally rule it out, but so far none of the studies found any correlation between electromagnetic fields (from mobile phones or power lines) and diseases.

Skepdic's entry on Electromagnetic Fields and Diseases.

How to break your addiction to cell phones? Easy. Work a full-time job, a part-time job, and go to school (that's what I'm doing.) Not only will you NOT use the phone, you'll probably learn to loathe it.

That, or get a job as a phone support tech for an ISP. That will cure you.

Using a mobile phone is like sticking your head in a microwave...they are not good for and there is proof that they can cause problems with your head. I don't know where this proof is but I know it exists. Hmm, crappy post really...

Maybe at high wattages, em fields may cause health problem. But until evidence proofs different, anything below Ultra Violet cannot cause cancer. Otherwise we would all be dead by now.

Anything below 10,000,000 Ghz should be safe.

some say that cellphones cause brain cancer and the such, and i used to believe them. but i dont worry bout it anymore, were not gonna live long enough for it to kill us. btw, somethin 99% of the population in Hong Kong has cellphones and they dont have more brain cancer than we do. Aint that right Drunk? Everybody's gottem dont they?

I don't use my cell phone very often, but at times when I'm on the phone for over 10 minutes the screen starts burning my cheek.

parrhesia, what kind of phone do you have and who is your service provider?

The electromagnetic radiation from mobile phones (800-900 MHz) is a different frequency than microwaves (2450 Mhz). The frequency has to be exactly high enough to be used in a microwave. The microwave also is a lot stronger than a mobile phone.
