How can I control my online addiction?

Help me please! I am so addicted to the internet (mostly msn) and it’s really getting in the way of my school work + I can’t concentrate at school and I’m really tired all the time! time always flys by and I don’t have time for the things I need to do! I’ve tried quitting but when I’m doing my homework I just rush it to get back online; how can I stop this getting out of control??

Answer #1

as with any addiction you must want to stop what you are doing before you can start getting better. Do you really want to stop being addicted to the internet? I’d suggest staying busy, like make plans to be away from your house( just like go over to a friends house or go play basketball or something but enough to fill up most of your day) or your computer for the majority of the day. you will need to find other stuff to do to fill up the time you usually spend on the computer or you will just wind up back on the internet

Answer #2

My friend is just like that, I think it is normal for quite a lot of people. You could try telling your parents to make sure that you don’t go on the computer or msn, because you want to get more work done, they could help keep an eye on you.

You could also ask your parents to put a time limit on the amount of time you spend on the computer, so that you will feel more pressured to get on with your homework.

Hope this helps!

Answer #3

better yet, make it a hobby to study away from your pc, like on you a place safe, cool, pleasant (like your garden, beside the pool, etc)… don’t think about anything related to what you used to surf on the net.. don’t kick the bucket out of being addict to the internet.. xp study first before leisure, ayt? xp
