After reading manga for hours, I look at the clock and remember my mom's wrath... which makes me turn off the computer right away. [almost] 😃

Scariest lady ever.

I'm resurrecting this post because I need tips and suggestions for breaking this addiction. I'm addicted to posting on this site. Originally I just used it to find manga, then when I joined the forums that was only because of the "I'm Looking for" section. Does anyone have any tips on how to quit? (Don't think I hate the forum, since I'm addicted I wouldn't hate it now would I?)

Why would you want to break this habit? Your post are actually somewhat insightful most of the time (unlike a certain xombie) and I enjoy your threads. Its not a bad addiction.

Just get away from the computer, do some sports, or get a job (this one is very drastic)

This is almost as fanatically as my WoW addiction, although not as time consuming. Idk I just don't like something controlling my life. I have control of my anime/manga addiction... I just dont for this posting thing =(

EDIT: I just realized I spend almost as much time if not more time POSTING about manga/anime than actually reading the stuff. 😢

I bite my finger nails (oral fixation), does that count as an addiction?

Poor thing xDD. I had an addiction to Neopets. Broke the habit when they started wanting money for clothes >.> I have an addiction to manga right now. No idea how that's gonna end. Addicted to BL too @_@ For that I think (hope?) it's a phase OTL||| Addiction to internet in general also I guess, when I went to my computerless house in Florida, I was so desperate to read the newest chapters of certain series (-cough- Neuro-cough-) that I would use my incredibly snail speed phone to view em. And I'd drag my mom to the library every day w

I was addicted to cheese. After all that cheese it just started to taste really bad so I guess it kinda kicked itself out.

Ive more or less broke the habit now, it's not that i did it by force of will, it's because of the insane amount of work that I need to get done and forums have taken a sideline. Still I pop on now and then to check the progress of the forums.

I'm addicted to procrastinating. I find new addictions (like manga) in order to avoid doing what I was supposed to do yesterday.

I know it sound's weird but i was kinda addicted to God and going to church. Yeah, weird...atleast in my ears cause i can't believe it anylonger.
I needed the guidance that i couldn't get anywhere else but somehow when i went to church i always was sad and real life sucked. they always say that God forgives you and things like that, But i don't want to forgive him 🤢

Life is better now 🙄

I indulge myself in whatever my addiction is at the moment (since I couldn't do otherwise anyway) until I get tired and sick of it eventually.
