Addicted to message boards

I roam around a crapload of boards for hours a day. Anyone else do this? It's fucking pathetic, I constantly want people's approval! What I really need is an internet patch or something to help me quit. God dammit.

ive been doing this crap for like 3+ years already. vg boards , sports boards , shoe message boards , this board(just recently) , rap message boards. i enjoy it - cuz ive met alot of cool ppl that have similar interest and it kills time when im bored. i dont know how i ever lived without them.i mean i dont spend 24/7 on message boards. i would say about a little less than 3 hours a day. seeing me post on other message boards you couldnt even tell have sa.

I've hanged out at several, there's one I've been more at than others.

You know, chat boards can be good places to begin bein more social. You can "test" out social things without fearing to be emberessed in the middle of people.

But I wouldn't recommend being at alot of them, and you should be carefull they don't take control of you. (Addiction). They are ressources with people who you can get help from and help. You should be in control. ;)

Myself I've been to a forum for 3 years. In easter, Norway's largest LAN-party will be held, then I'll meet a good deal of them. Many I've chatted with on MSN so they know about my social problems, and accept it. Looking forward too that. (A large LAN-party probably seems frightning to you, but I guess I'm kinda speficic, the longer I get away from home and lesser chance I have of running into someone I know there better it goes. Strangers are actually ok most of the time)

On the plus side, all this time on message boards has given me some very sad, low level notoriety...For instance:

[21:30] SomeRandomDickHole: I know you
[21:30] SomeRandomDickHole: your the famous "(insulting play on my name)"
[21:30] SomeRandomDickHole: hahahahahhaha
[21:38] (Me): ummm, hi

im addicted to this forum, its so stupid, i go in and out every 5min, i never knew it can be so addictive, if somebody cut off internet i think id die :(
 
Yeah, I've wasted too much time on forums also. I'd rather be outside chasing butterflies or something. Maybe we need to form a support group BBA Bulletin Boards Anonymous.

I used to be stupidly addicted to this site, amongst others. And I still do need my weekly forum fix (rather than daily, thankgod) but I think I echo MrRightNow's thought - I'm always seeking approval, its silly.

I've found that keeping myself insanely busy helps, but this has stresses of its own. 8O Argh!

*sticks internet patch on arm* :?
