Phantom Cell Phone Syndrome
When a cell phone becomes so attached to the person's self that they can feel it vibrate or ring when it has not. This stems from a long term dependency on cell phone technology and can easily be remedied by not using cell phone technology for several weeks. The term Phantom Cell Phone Syndrome was first coined by Social Psychologist Bradley Ictech.
When you feel your cell phone vibrate in your pocket, but it is in the other room you have just experienced Phantom Cell Phone Syndrome.
