It is just so tempting to try to get the things i want/need from scenarios here than to do it in a healthier way... easier right? but not why i am there. Damn. i hate logic.

Fluff, I'm not convinced the PC is not a healthy way to fulfill some wants/needs. Yes, I spend too much time here at times and it can be addicting. But it doesn't prevent me from interacting with people in RL. Now if you are declining dinner invitations or other social activities in order to sit at your computer on PC, then I think concern is warranted.

Some of your concern seems to be around time management, since you seem to have a flexible schedule. There is always going to be challenges when we have a choice between doing preferred and non-preferred tasks. I can also spend too much time watching TV, sunning on the deck, bar hoping, chatting with co-workers, etc. . There is a plethora of other distractions that keep me from getting work done. At least PC may have some positive benefits.

I think the suggestions made both by you and others are good options to try. Maybe a prioritized ToDo list is all you need to get you back on track with work. Maybe making a commitment to yourself to do a little something everyday to improve your sense of isolation in RL.
