TeleportSandwich Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Guys I need to figure out a way of geting rid of my internets addiction. Its practicaly the only thing I do on my free time and it gets in the way of me doing my school work, and I'm afraid that if I continue down this path that it'll get in the way of me having a career and a normal life. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can get this E-monkey off my back? Link to comment
Nega-Brent Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Get up and do something else. Link to comment
Battle_Pope Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 yeah, like TCZ said when he edited my post in a similar thread, "do something reproductive" Link to comment
amy Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 THROW AWAY YOUR COMPUTER. Or clear all your history and say, "If I go to a internet website i'm addicted to, I can't spend any money on anything other than oatmeal and water all month." Or something like that (it's impossible) Link to comment
Samurai Drifter Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 I have the same problem. D: In the past I've given my wireless card to someone to keep away from me for a week or so at a time, so I would suggest doing that if you can. Now I have integrated wireless, though... Link to comment
Dramatic Conclusion Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 I haven't told anyone yet, but I am banning myself from the internets except for research for November NaNoWriMo. :) Find a goal to pursue for a bit instead of internet lolz and adventure. Link to comment

These are the only two suggestions that seem at all feesable. The rest of you can go to hell and take your ignorent-ass comments with you Link to comment
cappy Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 check it out: http://www.accelerated-e.com/index.php?showtopic=2329 now stop reading these damn forums, get up, and do something. Link to comment
TeleportSandwich Posted October 31, 2006 Author Share Posted October 31, 2006 Saying "GTFO and get laid/a job" etc isn't advice, its just stating the obvious. If I could've done this kind of thing in the past or now I wouldn't bother making this kind of thread in the first place. So unless you have some actual advice, I ask you to not even post in this thread. Link to comment

Samurai Drifter Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 posting about an internet addiction on the internet is like complaining to the bartender that youre an alcoholic. And saying "just stop getting on the internet and do other stuff" is like saying "just don't drink." The afflicted knows they shouldn't, but can't stop. Link to comment
cappy Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 eh whatever hes on his own then. Link to comment
The Lone Magician Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Perhaps you should downgrade to dial up? Link to comment
amy Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Perhaps you should downgrade to dial up? Haha if you have dial up, nobody can call your house when you're on the internet! It really sucks xD I guess the effectiveness could be related to how much you like whoever's going to call. Link to comment
Belial Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Perhaps you should downgrade to dial up? Thats just going to increase the amount of time spent online. Link to comment
Pamuya Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 ok i'm going to try and not be an ass like some people. look for a hobby other than the internet. i don't know what your interests are other than anime but, try to find something else you enjoy. Link to comment
Battle_Pope Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 I solved my internet addiction with drugs. |G|A|N|J|A| my anti-internet that's the ticket. Link to comment
David Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Saying "GTFO and get laid/a job" etc isn't advice, its just stating the obvious. If I could've done this kind of thing in the past or now I wouldn't bother making this kind of thread in the first place. So unless you have some actual advice, I ask you to not even post in this thread. we figured if everyone told you to, you'd actually give into peer pressure and get out there and do it. i mean if peer pressure won't make you want to get out there and do something then i don't really know what will, aside from getting pussy whipped.
