I think I'm addicted to PC

I've been addicted to this forum lately. I've been on and off for several hours during the day since registering a few days ago and I already have well over 50 posts with a 14.63 average posting activity per day.

I don't really rely on it for support but find lurking on threads both old and new and interacting with some of the people fun for some reason.

Does anybody else have this problem with this site or a similar one? If so, how do you limit yourself?

Lol. It was good to read this post! I sometimes feel I'm addicted. I don't have access during the day. So when I get home I can end up staying up most of the night just reading posts. There's times I've been on it everyday several days in a row. And if I'm able to resist when I first get home when I finally cave, then I'm on it for a long time.

I figure it's doing me good. And there are worst things I could be doing with my time. But this staying up super late during work nights is a problem.

Sorry... I haven't figured out a way to limit myself. Other than after everything I have neglected piles up then I have to force myself to not open up my computer. I was able to quit the cigarettes last year but I don't have the willpower to stay away from PC.

Haha same here! I'm addicted to the computer. While I do work from home off my computer as a primary source of income, I often have issues managing my time and typically spend many hours on the PC browsing the internet and playing games when I'm not working.

What makes it worse for me is I have dual browsers so I can easily put my web browser on my second monitor and play games or do other random things with my main monitor haha

Didn't think I was alone on this but it's good to be reassured

I'm definitely addicted to PC. lol I spend way too much time on here. I haven't really found a way to limit it yet but I haven't tried all that hard either. I think if I needed to I would set an alarm to end a session and only allow a certain length of time.

I'm addicted too! If one day I have technical problems and I can't come here I feel lost. It's not fair, probably...I shouldn't be addicted...but it's worth it, since PC gives me so much

okay, so, I'm saving time here and not reading the replies here, I'll do that later, 'cuz I too feel sometimes that i'm addicted to PC.

Everything has two sides, good and bad. it depends. I really feel this strongly as of late.

Once on a good side, you see things and you find things you like. I'm not explaining it well, but say, you do reading for research 'cos you're new here, and especially reading old posts are important. You'll find something really good, instead of following only new posts, you see the same type of q&a time and time again. If you don't find the answer, this happened to me btw, I felt I was stuck there while I was not getting anything good out of the browsing activity.

If anything you do here, is that a waste of time? you can see it anywhere you like and find the view from both sides.

Addiction. Although English is a second language to me, I suppose the understanding is quite similar to yours. It's a bad thing, innit?

'Everything is in moderation'...................history repeat itself..what?

See? As long as you're having fun..I'd like to say that, but not quite.

Love this thread of yours. Thanks.

Edit: looks like the addiction got me, my writing is not making sense! pls just skip reading if it's too hard.
(so, i've read all of it, i'm an addict. hi, my names takeshi, and i got story to tell! post away my friend.)

(Seriously though, if you got the story to tell, you gotta. The story worth telling. We can all read them later. )

(awww, check out my reason for editin.)

It's good that you are all into this forum. After all, it is a place to share your experiences, to ask questions, to find answers, to gain support and to be part of a community.

Even if it is an addiction, it's a good addiction.
