[nikolasvarma]

Up to me, i have turned to be an addict. i cannot leave the computer for more than 2 hours a day. i think computer, i eat computer, i swimm with computers. im colse-to-be dead person. I do not have any social life, even my family, i dont remember most of them. im 23 but i could not make any relationship since high school. i dont watch tv or listen radio, i dont read journals. i have forgot the outer world. niether do i dont care about politics.
why is that happening.? do most of u have the same illness.? or it is only me suffering it?

I find that going out and drinking lots of Alcohol is a good way of keeping away from the PC :)

And with some pot, it's even more fun!

Personally, I dun think 'we' need medication. A computer hobby will go just as far as you allow it to go. I can spend days and nights with my computer, just programming, compiling new progs, and googling just about everything I can think of.

@TS: I think you're just overreacting a bit. http://images.scholieren.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif
Because you wonder whether you're not paying the outer world enough attention, you haven't forgotten all about it. Consider it as a fase, or go to a psychologist.

I had a friend who got a divorce because she was addicted to her computer - especially the chat rooms. So be careful, this addiction could be serious. Try to spend more time away from the computer and get a life.

I think it's ok to enjoy the computer or anything else, just as long as it's done in moderation. A good balance equals good life.... ;)

Here's a tip, Degs, buy yourself a small fridge, place it next to the mobo, and fill it with cans, sure saves the hassle of waiting at bars to be served, just keep the superglue well away. :p

Where's the atmosphere? Where's the variety?
I've got a pretty good fridge downstairs stocked with Lager and the walk does me good :D

I go on the computer way to much too. Here is my schedule.
Gym. Computer
Next day
Computer. Sleep. Computer.
Next day.
Basketball (nearly have a heart attack because I 24/7 on the computer) Computer.
And so on and so forth with a stupid physical activity and then spend the rest of the ENTIRE day on the computer:dizzy: :eek:

geeky gals...
Try to spend more time away from the computer and get a life. My brother works at a helpdesk, and I'll prolly be doing a ITC/IT/software developing study type of thing. That means... We'll be spending our (day)time behind computers, and... well, offcourse there is gaming and LAN parties.

I think, it really is the environment you're in that defines the computer addiction/affection the most. When I'm on vacation, hiking and mountain climbing, yes; it would seem wierd if I'd pack up my laptop and climb the mountain while compiling my kernel. Tho, it's really not that wierd on a IT-campus.

Its Good to be focused... to know what you want. Now with that said... you can get to much of a good thing, I love puters... spend days and nights in front of them. But my wife often spends those same days and nights staring at the back of my head.

Remember some of the things you enjoyed before computers, and schedule some time in for them again in your life. Freinds and Family are very important... but its not neccasary that they are the focus of your life.

I am sure the folks here are halfway kidding when they tout alcohol as any form of a solution or treatment. It is fun and giggles of course... but never a solution
