I get on but then I cant get off. I cant help it. Why is that? Is there anyway I can stop that? Besides not getting on in the first place. My self control is weak!! If I didnt have a high metabolism I would be 400 pounds. : (
Just some help would be nice.
Thanks

You'll have to learn to listen to self discipline. Set a timer for an hour. Have fun on the internet, but when the time goes off, wrap it up and get off line. Of course you may want to spend two or three hours--you set your own pace. Before you get online, decide how much time you can allow yourself for it and set your timer.
(Right now I need to be taking clothes out of dryer and hanging them up.....!!!)

It is an escape. It becomes habit. It relieves boredom. If you are concerned, then quit cold turkey for a week. It's only a week and it won't kill you. Find a good book to read, meet up with some friends, go to a movie. Distract yourself. Then when you do get back on, limit yourself.

This might seem silly, but it worked for me, until I started up again. =_=
Make a bet with yourself. Say, "If I touch that computer at all for a week, I will..." yada yada.
Gradually, if you do this, then your addiction to the internet will cease. (Hopefully)
And... If you do myspace... Seriously. There are better things to do.

The internet is a heavenly place with no supervision whatsoever. That's why it is so addicting. If you ever find a cure, let me know too! ;-)
