Serious DS addiction Mood
Tuesday, November 18, 2008 | A General Update story

The title probably says it all.  I have to consciously stay away today and get some work done.  My behavior is so irresponsible.  I love this place.  A new friend gave me some good advice right away, which I haven't really taken of course Smile.  He said to set good mental boundaries so that I can help (and be helped) but not have it affect me so much (he said it so much better than that).

 

I'll be addicted to something until the day I die, I swear.

    I find it nice to leave the PC for an hour then return with DS still opened ... awaiting my return. It is the only way to get necessary things done around here and still feel like a part of the groups! Then later I'll have to be gone for a few hours to clean a business and work on a PC I got a call about last night ... it is not too hard to mix the two, but it takes effort. You are doing great I say!

    I think this is why I joined the Internet Addiction support group ;-)

    One must truly be care not to live their lives in cyperspace. DS is meant to augment, not be the center of life. I had decreased my time here significantly since when I first starte.

    Let's not talk about being addicted for life! It makes it sound so, well,
    PERMANENT!! I look at it as being addicted one day at a time....

    And yes, one day at a time, that's my life story... :-)
