Any practical technique that I can use to get a bit more self discipline?

My husband wouldn't like me to get a boyfriend. If I spend time with my husband, we just watch boring T.V.

Open a book, tell yourself that you are just going to read for 5 minutes and you will likely continue. If you have something else to do, just do the same. Say you will just turn away for a little while and get involved with whatever task you need to do.

Set a limit of questions you will respond to and then just quit when you've reached the limit. Works for me. Well, except your question caught my eye just after answering my "last" question for the night. But really, it's not that hard to set a limit and stick to it. If you exceed your limit by an answer or two the Earth as we know it won't end. No worries!

Wean yourself gradually, reduce the questions and answers and increase the voting on "undecided questions" - it still gives you the opportunity to participate in a sorta silent way. If you run across the occasional good question then go ahead and answer then return to voting - it's not as exciting as asking questions or answering so you won't stay as long.

Turn off the computer or pray for a lights out.

i know, me too. i am sitting here telling myself i need to get to bed. i think you have to limit yourself, and decide ahead of time how many questions you will answer or how long you will be online. maybe set a timer and when it goes off just get up? the cut off for answering questions has saved me many times, ha ha. i just wanted to get to level three!!!

Don't worry! At level 2 you can't be that addicted. Now, at level 7, feel free to repost the question :)

Just log off and shut your computer down, then you will have to get off and do what needs to be done.
