i am addicted to this computer game i a serious i will get on it at 9:00am and not get off tell 2:00am and then when i finaly go to bed all i want to do is get back on. i think i love the game to much what should i do?
Is that second life? cus my sister is the same... if not I think you have a better chance of the addiction running its course, and you just enjoy it while you have it... then other problems will distract you
Yeah, it's normal. That's what video games are good for. The real world sucks. Why live in reality when you could live in a fantasy?
But seriously though, moderate your game time. Limit yourself. If you can't do this, then you probably shouldn't play video games.
Omg, That happended to me about a year ago. I was addicted to this game called Free Realms. And it literally consumed my life. Its all I thought about 24/7. I was on it from the time I woke up to the time I went to bed at like 4:00am. It was getting out of control so finally I just quit. I quit cold turkey. And I've never been better. I love the feeling of saying that I actually have a life. Try it. Its hard. I know. But it's worth it in the long run. Trust me :)
Same, MILLIONS of people are like this, that is why games are so popular.
I used to be like this, same game for like 11 hours a day.
Just realise what else is in the real world, not because its bad, but because you don't want to be that addicted and involved in games.
Yes they are fun! But don't get to the point where you don't want a partner, or to be with friends because you want to play a game instead.
Everyones been down that road, most people still are.
Like the comment above, aslong as you have other things, eat, go out, have other interests its fine.
As long as your still going to work/school it honestly doesn't matter in my opinion. It's addiction will die out sometime, trust me. It's not unhealthy unless your not eating too much or too little.
Just wait, it will get old, even if it's an MMO.
When I first got tumblr, I became severely addicted to it. I thought about it none stop and was on it constantly. Then, I realised that I needed to become less dependent. I don't really know how I managed to pull it off, but I did. I still go on it, but not 24/7.
I have been addicted to video games, but I've never played them 24/7. I know tumblr isn't a game, but I've never done those online ones so, it's the closest I could get to this. I know it's hard, but 24/7 isn't healthy. Try to find something else to occupy your mind/time. Good Luck:)
Its normal, especially if the game is new to me and addictive. Are you playing WoW? Been there done that. Eventually you'll tire of it. I did.
As a mom I hear many parents worrying about their children wasting their lives.
Get off it, destroy it and get outside with real people and create memories for your old age :o)
