I'm sitting here half naked in a towel when I should be at the gym but this is so addictive. Is there such a thing as internet addiction? Perhaps I need a net intervention!

Sorry about the towel visual! I just meant that I was supposed to be dressing in gym clothes and here I am at 1 pm and on the net!

I've gotten addicted to a lot of sites, and it keeps ruining my life. I could actually be doing fun things when I just sit here and type pointless things that I don't have much fun with. When you get addicted to a site, it doesn't matter whether you like it or not- you're gonna keep going to it and going to it unless you tell yourself to STOP. Willpower is the key. And time.
When you want to go to a site, stop and think. What is this site doing to you? Could you be doing better things? What posessed you so that you keep on typing this URL that is ruining your life? Before you go on the internet, make a promise to yourself that you will not go to that site. Use your willpower, and avoid typing in that URL. If you find yourself writing it, stop immediately. If you keep going to this site, you will keep finding reasons to come back. Think of something else, ignore the little voice that tells you to type it and go to the addicting site. If you do not go to the site for a while (use your willpower to do this), then you will eventually forget all about it and move on to more important things. As days pass, you'll find it easier and easier to ignore that addicting site. Soon, that site will just be a little memory. But that's no reason to go to it again! If you go to it again, you'll find a reason to come back, and you'll have to stop yourself again.
Now when you feel you don't care about the site anymore, go to it, as a treat. But resist the urge to go to it again the next day! Think "This site is only as a treat. If I go to it too much I will become addicted and completely go back to the beginning where I was doing nothing BUT going to this site." Think "Is this the life that I want, or do I want to have fun?!"
After you've mastered the power of willpower, time will pass and your addiction will go away.

LoL, no you're only addicted when you're sitting there fully naked in a towel. :-)

As with all new things, I also am hoping this novelty wears off. I'm addicted too and obviously of no help. :)
