How can I wean myself from this site? Or should I do it "cold-turkey"?!
Question: I am wasting *far* too much valuable time on here. Yet, I can't seem to stop.

Punch your self in the balls every time you think about going to this site. im sure after afew times you wont want to come back.=]
i get addicted to. id would rather u do this then u do somehtin harmful. so dont worry about it.
if u must i suggest weaning. cold turkey will make u go crazy.
Give your employer your account.
.
Tell me about it. But it is the only thing keeping me from extreme boredom and torture.
cold turkey.
I did it cold turkey for a year. When I fell sick then I came back again.
One way is to delete your account. Sabotage it and have it suspended or deleted by the admins. Some people get addicted to getting those imaginary points or whatever, like it means something.
Another way would be to, you know, moderate your visits to the site.
give yourself a time limit each day.
I know what you mean. They draw you in on the points! It's a trap you can't escape from! Don't fight it.
me to.!
ever since i found about it i cant stop being on it (lol)
i guess it is bettr than drugs or somehting..
but maybe take a vaction for a week or just unplug your computer.
has to be cold-turkey.....you can't wean yourself offf .....it's all or nothing
peace@love=0)
you should slowly make a decrease in you time on the site and find other things to do
You've just got sad sad life... You're either a loner (no you are a loner) and you definately need a good... *u*k
I know how u feel. I limit myself to 1 day a week :) get outside more there are some beautiful days coming ...I hope lol
I think it is harmless. You might actually be learning something. You could even be helping other people make some positive decisions.
I know a lot of it is silly, and some of the questions can't be serious.
I think in time you will wean yourself off of it, because you will get bored with all the repetitious questions and answers.
But in the meantime. Have fun!!
Well, then don't stop. or stop really slowly if you really ewant to. Stopping cold turkey could make you wanna do it more, so you could wind up doing it when it'll get you in trouble. If you really wanna stop, start only doing it when you have spare time, then go to only doing it when you have nothing else to do, then start finding other things to do. eventually you'll stop.
Kurt, you can't do that!
You've got 15% best answers. People are richer for your presence here. You actually are worth listening [reading your answer] to.
You can't stay away, we need you! People have a need for mentors. You'll become known as one of the grand old men of answers.yahoo.com.
Maybe you don't want to answer quite so much. Answer less, give yourself a break.
But don't stay away. We can't spare people who can produce a sane response, who can make sense of the world.
You are one of those people. Do you know how absolutely scarce you are?
You can't stay away!
yea, do wat that guy says and punch urself in the balls
Doing it cold turkey could work if you make the commitment to not go on here anymore. You might also try timing how long you go on the site and slowly cutting it down. Also, a good idea is to find other things to replace the time you spend visiting this site, like reading a book or sleeping or exercising etc.
well, find something productive to do at home, because I feel the same way sometimes...people around where i live, have nothing better to do than gossip sometimes, and at least when i come here, I can express myself to others, and hopefully give someone some advice, that really helps them..so try to just get a home project done, that's what i am trying to do
Hey, at least your not out getting drunk in a bar or out smoking weed. I don't see the harm. Moderation is the key.
I can see what you're talking about and have one suggestion and that is this: be more selective.
Sorry
Yours truly
