Go get a lot of fresh air, walk or jog. The depression will lift and you'll find something else you'd rather be doing than on the net all the time.

It is very easy to become addicted to the pc, like drugs, gambling, sex, etc. etc. All mind over matter. Ofcourse it is easier said then done.
First of all your health is of the utmost importance. Atleast six hours of sleep is necessary for the normal human being. Your body and your brain need a rest. There are people who require eight hours of sleep. In my own professional opinon people who sleep ten to twelve hours per night have a serous problem that they should deal with on a professional level.
To much sleep is just has bad as not getting enough sleep.
Try and find other alternatives in our life beside the pc. Walk, movies, music, reading books, TV, going out with friends, etc. etc.
The computer will always be there.
You must learn what is known as "Behavior Modification", change your brain habits. Spend only say one or maxium two hours per day on the computer.
If you find that you are spending more time, then the next day do everything possible to reduce that time to where you can reach only one or two hours. When you have reached the one or two hour mark and have not gone over then you will have defeated the addication. (Behavior Modification of your brain).
Good luck to you.
