Internet and game addiction?


Question:
I have a bad addiction to video games and using the internet. I cannot stop. My family has noticed just how much time I spend on both. I want to be more responsible with games and the internet but I just cannot control myself. I want to do better things in my life. Please give me some advice to help me get over these addiction. Thank you.

Answers:
WOW i have been there. The games can be so much fun that you just can't stop or don't want to stop playing. Sometimes i would be up playing till 2 - 3am. Then my pc went down and i had to reinstall windows. When i tried to reinstall my games one disk had a scratch, etcc.. Well lets just say i don't play anymore. I could have gone and bought new games but i knew if i did it would be the same thing all over again. so just uninstall the games and give the disk to your parents tell them to hold onto them for a week take kind of a vacation and keep busy for that week. See how that works.
give away ur computer?
its just in ur head
a new study proved that video games and computers arent an addiction.

try doing more things outside ur probably white as death
Talk to your family and tell them you are worried about yourself. Ask their help. Then get appropriate mental health counseling. It sounds like you aren't that far gone. Best wishes for a healthy future.
