Question

Is only the need for livelihood considered a legitimate need, or also an emotional or Torah-related need? And in any case, is it possible to absolutely forbid Internet access to someone who feels they need it for their own reasons?

Answer

Shalom u’vracha.

Turn to a rabbi who knows you personally, present your need to him, and act according to his guidance.
