Addicted to my Computer!?!


Question: Im trying really hard to concentrate on my studies at the moment. But I have this addiction to going on my laptop all the time, to do various things, like checking my email and FACEBOOK! Ive in the past even had to disable my account because of it! I have a need to check my laptop at least 5-8 times a day!
Is anyone else like this?

that's not addiction , addiction is when you use your computer for long hoours constantly every day. I'm addicted, I use my laptop more than 14 hours aday !!

Internet is part of life now

what you could do is that you can sign up with your email service to recieve a text message on your cell phone when you receive a new email, this way you can know who emailed you without getting on the internet to check your email and to check face book notifications.

also, you can set priorities to your daily tasks, for example, see what's do you have to do in your every day life, and set priorities based on what's more important.
dedicate only few hours a day to use the internet , email, and facebook, and respond to your messages in those hours dedicated to the internet. your friends will understand that you open your facebook at some certain time a day only

good luck :)

i am =\

im TOTALLY like that. i must check all of my messages whenever theres a computer around or if i have my laptop near me!

well yeah i can completely understand,its same with me,i couldn't study properly even during my exams.
even when i had nothing 2 do,i just kept randomly googling something

Yep. I heard they are putting in Internet Addiction in the DSM
