Well, for me, I was using the computer waaaay too much, lik 4 or 5 hours a day, and I became very irritable, and my eyes were always watery, and I had headaches. So i decided from now, that I will only use the computer during the week just to check like my email, blog, yahoo answers, etc and the one or two forums I'm in, and if there is school work to do (so like 1 or 2 hours, like 3 times a week), then on Friday I can use the computer however long I want. It has been working so far, and I find myself less stressed out, less iritable, and nicer.

So you should first identiy your problem, identify how you want to be in the future, see the steps that will lead to taht goal, and be realistic.

There are temporary solutions for addictions and permanent ones. The temporary, basically can be medicine, Will power or withdrawal. The problem with temporary solutions to addictions is that they can come back or the person can become addicted to something else and of course there are withdrawal symptoms. The best long term solution is to go to the core of the problem and see why this addiction has been developed and tackle it, therapy helps with this. The best thing about therapy is that it deals with the problem and not the symptoms. However, this only goes for psychodynamic therapy which goes to the core of the person and takes them to their past. Cognitive, humanistic, learning, physiological and social therapy do not have permanent solutions even though they may be long term.

I hope this answers your question.

corn ball as it sounds, it is simply mind over matter. I can see the negatives of what I'm doing and realize there is no positive end to it and in wanting to change I can stop, just stop. It's not easy, but it's part of empowering yourself to do something positive for yourself. Plus I have control issues, I like to keep mine.

once i read fatwa for a scholar who said addiction is a result of somewhere empty in your heart,which you are trying to fill.but we usually fill it the wrong way,causing addiction of bad,or even good things driving us the wrong way.
the only Value in this world deserving all this love and passion is God.it doesnt mean to stop loving anything,and only worship God.God asked us to love each other,be good to our enemies.love is the theme of our religion.so it is love for God sake.
i mean love your work ,not only to be successful,but first to serve people as God told us to help each other,then to satisfy our love for work.if work is an addiction for instance.
you see!it is an intentions game.your intention is turning your addictions to worship.also this protects you from addiction complications .coz if your basic inention was God satisfaction through anything you are doing,then this thing ,however you like it, wont ever drag you the wrong way.
in Islam we beleive it is prohibited to like anything or anyone more than God.it is kind of a very big sin.and i read in Christianity,also that they are told not to worship more than one God,ie:no to worship money,ower,life joys ..to abig extend.i think religions are protecting us from being captured by earth's traps.
i think ,if it is not prohibited, dont stop doig what you like,just turn it to be for God's sake,and the way it satisfies God,that is what we need ;to do every thing through God's love
i wish you the best
