I'm always on the computer. Sometimes, constantly from right after school until I go to bed at 11 at night. Once I get off, I hop right back on to look if I got any instant messages, e-mails, myspace comments, etc. I wish there was something I can do to stop being so obsessed with the computer. I've tried, but nothing seems to be happening. Can you help?

You have given it a stronghold in your life, and as you have already discovered, it won't be easy to be free again.
First, go back in your memory to the time before you spent so much time on the computer? What did you do then that was more meaningful?
Second, spend some time thinking of activities that are more meaningful than being on the computer so much. Think of ways you can reach out and touch someone's life who is hurting. So many need encouragement.
Third, Limit your time on the computer. Log off after so many minutes and don 't go back on until you have done something else for so many minutes. Increase the time you do this every day, even if it's only a little, until you are only on the computer a reasonable amount of time.

Sounds like me. Not only that I have to support the darn things for a University.
Best thing to do is get rid of your computer. Or find an activity like Karate.

use the machine for homework and research.then turn off the stupid thing and get an answering machine phone...they blink when you have a message and you can actually TALK to others who you give the number...text messageing sucks we just do it cause we can

simple, it should come from your mind, say you won't!!!
be online the minimum possible, in this way you'd reduce the usage.....
