Just recently I have been wondering if I'm addicted to games. I don't go to the extremes such as taking days off work to game...well..maybe twice..
hmm
My main problem is that I want to do real things, better things, accomplish goals etc but I end up playing games all night. The worst part is because of this desire, I dont fully commit to the games (WoW in particular), I dont want to dedicate the time it takes to do the end game crap, so I end up just messing about not really acheiving anything in game either!
I was 'proud of myself' today, I avoided playing WoW and had a break... (I played BF1942, BF2 and BF2142)
I'd like to be able to just play a few games now and then but I dont think I can control myself. Should I just give up completely? At least for a while?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Before WoW it was CSS, BF2, etc... I've always enjoyed gaming, even back when I was just a youngin' in diapers. It's only been since I started playing WoW when i really thought "dang... I've been playing 16 hour days for 4 days in a row."
I actually did quit for a few months but I found myself just sitting around doing nothing and I missed all my good friends that I made on my server so I'm back into it *not sure what to do though*
