Myspace addict?

Question

I'm always on myspace, everyday and every hour. The problem with this is I don't do my homework, eat or sleep that much, I'm always on myspace commentings and messages, getting "New picture Comments" it really makes my day, specially when the guy is cute and hot.

I want to take a break from myspace for a month. Help me?

Today, I tried not going on there and I turned off the computer but my brother was loggin to his myspace page and I had to do the same.

Answer 1

There's nothin wrong with wanting to chat with friends and stuff, but you are right-it's time for a break.
First things first, realize that you need some self control. Remember that you can control yourself from getting on MySpace. It will take a lot of effort and hard work-but you can do it!!
Next, try and avoid the computer as much as possible. Don't peek in the room where your computer is located. Don't go in and out of the house, passing the room where the computer is at. If you can't help but walk by because that's the only way, then fine. Don't look at the computer-don't awknowledge it!!
When you come home from school, don't think about MySpace. Tell yourself, "After I get caught up on school and stuff, then I can get on the computer." Do your schoolwork as soon as you come home from school. The faster you get to it-the faster you can get it over with. On the weekends, go outside and enjoy the nice day. Read, draw, write, talk on the phone, hang out with friends-do whatever...except MySpace!
I also think you should try to motivate yourself. Write down notes to yourself to read when you feel tempted to do MySpace. It's also a good idea if you can get a family member or two to support you. And having a friend/family member go on the MySpace Break with you is also a good idea too.
Remember: Your goal won't be easy. At times that month may feel long and you may want to quit-but don't quit! You can so make it. You're gonna have to try really hard and be serious, self controlled and determined to go a month without MySpace but YOU CAN DO IT!!!

Good luck and I hope I helped!

i had the same problem too. >.
juz think of it this way.. you'll be doing something more productive rather than sit in front of the comp zombified into the screen. juz stay away from the computer. go to a different room.

if you feel like you really really REALLY gotta log onto myspace, then juz log into it then log off immediately after you read ur msgs or whatnot. you can't quit all at once y'kno? juz think to yourself that you're wasting time on there when you have better things to do...like your HWs!! :P

Answer 3

myspace is like, a serious drug now-a-days, lol.

but um, yeah, if you say you're going to stay away from it then that's what you need to do. keep your commitment to yourself, otherwise, why waste the few minutes trying to come up with it anyway?

and honestly, if you're so addicted that you don't eat, sleep, or watch your grades... think about it. what do all the messages and commets and 'new picture comments' add up to? are they a competition to see how many you can get or something?

Answer 4

My friend had the same problem, so she just deleted it! After all the work she'd done, she went mad. Ok she wasn't on it alllll day, but a lot! She was what I considered a myspace addict. She just deleted it the other day, and I was in shock!

Answer 5

See man thats why Im not on that dumbass website. Why waste your time decorating a stupid un realistic page when you could do something WORTH your time. Ooo I got a picture message big deal!! Everybodi on there is probably a pervert or a petifile anyway. And kids are dumb enough to put their picture and info out there! Oh HELL no!!!! Jus delete tha damn picture and try to use your life as much as you can by GOING places and not on the DAMN computer!!! If not then you need counciling. 4 real...

Answer 6

I believe, I truely believe that Myspace is causing the rapid decay of society. You can not get off of your computer to take yourself away from Myspace. If you want to talk to a friend...CALL THEM! If you want to know what is up in their life...CALL THEM! If you want to hear from a hot guy...go talk to him. We have created a culture of people obcessed with "new picture comments". What ever hapened to saying hello anymore. You, like millions others, are not going to have the social skills to be able to relate to people in person any more. If you want to get off of Myspace, delete your log in. Don't go on it. It is about self control...you want to talk to some one go to their house or call them.

Answer 7

What you got to do is delete it. I know it sounds soo hard but you cant really just "take a break" from it. thats almost impossible if you know you have one...you think that there's always something to do on there or change. Learn to control yourself. If this is taking away from your 'real world life', like doing your homework and whatnot, you have to draw the line. control yourself and just delete it all. Its what i had to do and i got over it soon enough. good luck!
