You guys are automaticly assuming that I don't get out at all...but I do. The problem is when I come back home.

Most days (Except yesterday) during this holiday I go out with friends to shibuya and get home late in the evening. But then when I get home, kerplut straight onto the computer.

I don't mind using the computer for creative stuff, but its the internet I wana kill.


Thanks for all the help *)

why dont you start by un-signing out of all your forums etcetc? delete all emails except for one, stop playing games, stop helping the MR forums :)p). do you reckon that would help??
 
People use their leisure time in the way that they enjoy most. The only difference between TV addiction from 15 years ago and internet addiction today is that internet addiction seems to carry a greater social stigma than television.

Personally, I think as long as you're not hurting yourself or missing opportunities to get out there and do stuff with friends, you can do whatever you want with your leisure time. Control your internet usage to the point where it's not affecting your school work and relationship with your friends and family. Beyond that, you shouldn't feel bad for using the internet.
 
Well I don't know much ways to help you, as I too am addicted.
Mostly to MacRumors.
Every chance I get I go on the internet, especially at school.

I know of at least 50 people that are addicted to MacRumors.
Maybe the 11 that aren't can help you out on how not to be addicted to the internet.

EDIT: BURN YOUR CAT5 CORD!!!
