is there a cure without stopping the games altogether.?

If you eat, sleep and work from your computer desk there may be a problem.
Try to set scheduled limits & stick to them.

Couldn't believe this story...apparently two 21 and 23 year old parents of two children of age 11 and 22 months severely neglected their children due to an internet addiction of the online RPG Dungeons and Dragons. The children were near death before they were taken by social workers.

I thought maybe the chick would have a myspace since they're so internet savvy, and I was right.

Pretty sad. Prettay-prettay-prettay sad. White trash are embarrassments to caucasians everywhere. And where was the Reno Sheriff's Department? Officer Jones and Garcia should have been all over that.

It really is sad! Those poor babies! But I just don't understand how a couple can become THAT ingrossed in the internet and gaming?! It doesn't make any sense to me. I mean, I love the internet as much as the next addict.. but really... take care of your kids first!!!!

Pick a new hobbie or get married and buy a house. That leaves you no time to play plus the added bonus is the wife naggin you that you spend too much time on the pc. Eventually you get tired of hearing it and quit lol..

I vote for a new hobbie something outside with friends. I havent played WoW in a while was a slow detox but the wife naggin helped it along. = )

I love playing online video games on my computer, but I play over(my parents tell me to stop but I don't)a lot. I know I should stop but for some reason I just have to keep on playing. Why are they so addictive and can someone help me make my addiction go away?
lol such good answers(the first three) idk who to pick as best answer =O lol
wow such good answers and btw even tho i wanna spend mony on online games my parents dont let me. i play the free online games but u can use ur mony on it its optional. so i dont use mony on teh online games

I don't know why it's so addicting but I was addicted to it myself for a few years.

eventually i cut off my internet access and went cold turkey, it was hard but I got through it.

I suggest you move your PC into a family room, get it out of the bedroom where you'll always be tempted.

the hard part is if you're like me, all your friends are online too, so it's harder to quit, try to organise a day with them outside of the house, like to the movies or go paintballing.

if you really do want to quit talk to your parents about it, they'll be able to help you too.

try chaning your net access to dialup speeds, that'll put a choke on online gaming
