I'm sick of it. Some people would tell me something and then say sorry if that's not what you want to hear or what you want to hear. Or say what do you want ot hear or not to hear. I mean I'm not like that! Even if I'm the only one in this world that only hears everything people say, and don't filter out anything. I don't sit around thinking "this is what I want to hear or don't want to hear" I take things exactly what I hear and see and read. Make sense? I don't filter out unpleasant stuff people say. I take it as it is.

I think of Galileo, Darwin, and Hume who were sort persecuted for their beliefs and discoveries. The Catholic Church ravaged anyone that got in the way of it's doctrines. Come brillant minds never came to the front with their findings because it contradicted some of the beliefs of the bible.

Bush comes to mind when I think of modern hindrances by religious zealots; his stand on stem cell research is not exactly pro-research. Stem cells could be one of the greatest advancements in history if only there were enough scientists and funding behind it. Only the die hard Christians are against it and most don't even understand it. We need to have a separation from Church and State, obviously this hasn't really happened yet.

My situation
I really need your suggestions, info, links, et cetera to get me break away from this computer addiction please. I have been living with computer since its advent, and I have been too long in this bit and byte world. I have almost no problem with my family and/or social matters (maybe), but certainly, I have problems with myself. I realize that my addiction to computer and internet has seized big values of my life. Please do not assume that I am addicted to the gaming, gambling, chatting, or sexual leisure online. I think I have really got the most of the computing and internet, I got answers for my quests in life: history, languages, hobbies, health, skill improvement, and other eye-openers, but I realized that at the end I just barely do not recognize myself. I knew that before the PC arrival, I was a simple human with a romantic and artistic mind inside, and then later I evolved to such a robot, to be precise: a slave of the technology. The internet had made me more tied to the PC, at first it delivered me the news of the world, marvelous things found there within the clicks and so on, but then made me deep drown into the pond of information.

The cost and the lost
Having knowledge to computer hardware made me always upgrade my gears. It made me spend big cost just to fulfill my lust over those times. My room is full with the old gears, gadgets, and things from online stores. My PCs and notebooks are full with MP3s, PDFs, and many things downloaded both free and paid. I also spent for many external/ portable harddisks for backing up and traveling. I do not mean to showoff, I just tell you how worse it was from time to time during about 20 years. I sometimes think about the lost time for repairing my gears, updating my softwares, browsing; and how many books that I have not read completely.

There was a break
One time, in two straight months last year, I spent my times with my son playing Tamiya, small racing cars in small tracks. It was wonderful that it made me totally forgot my computers. We have had most of the time together for racing, modifying, winding the wires for the tiny motors, etc. My wife was so amazed that the toys have made me away from the PC. It ended because of the coming rainy season that made us packed and boxed back the tracks and cars, and I simply switched back to the old routine.

In search of healing
I remember a precious phrase: Two kinds of those who lost; they are who looks for wealth and for knowledge. This phrase sometimes wakes me up but bad habit is addicting and I found myself always returned into that path. I think it is just similar to drug addiction. As the internet is an endless resource, I search through it for the cure, and I have found some articles about it and tried to implement them, but it always hard for me to liberate myself from my habit. I really hope that finally I find it in this forum, especially from you.

Your helps, Please
I know that some of you are familiar to manage some types of dependence, or maybe you have healed from the same situation. Whether you have some psychological, spiritual expertise, certain medication, or exercises, please share your advice, I need it badly. I do not want to clog the rest of my life in that digital world. There must be somebody else also in pain from the same thing, your kind suggestion will be very valuable and it will save some life. Thank you very much for sparing your time reading this lengthy note. God bless you.

PS:
I post this in Computing & Internet, Health, and Social Science with time interval, hoping to net more inputs.
Please do not waste your time to put any unpleasant or unnecessary words, consider it will not only read by me but also by the other fellow readers. If you are not in the same situation with me, you perhaps still have the advantage of knowing the answers. Thank you, again.

I spent 3 mos working the 3 jobs, he didn't lift a finger in the house cook or clean and things have never been worse. My husband and teen boys don't think they need to pick up, are disrespectful to me and he can't see the damage this is doing to his children, only to say that it is my fault that things are this way. Husband has always had an excuse and will twist the truth. I am moving forward in my business and also promoting the fitness ctr. I will take care of my kids but I have no $$ for a cleaning person, I think it would send the wrong message to my kids if I did. Therefore I have let the house work suffer, some nights don't sleep trying to work on it, and my husband refuses to help, or get the kids to, has managed to twist the truth many times, trying to make me feel guilty or to blame. Yet will accuse me of playing games with him and has told my daughter that I manipulate their relationship. This is more harmful to my kids and I just don't know how to fix anymore.
