You may be strong enough to do this or you may need to ask a friend to do this…. remove WoW from your computer. Destroy (or sell, or give away) the disks, and throw away the game manuals, any literature that concerns WoW. Then try to get a job that doesn’t require you to sit at your computer all day.
I don’t know what WOW is, but if it is interfering in your life so badly then it is obviously a problem. As with any addiction you need help, seek therapy.
I know a person who was addicted to it but they just got tired of it and quit. The main thing is the game itself isn’t that good. Cause you have to pay a subscription then when a new version comes out you have to buy it. It’s only available on windows. Thats called a rip off.
about quitting ween yourself off. if you play 6 hrs a day next week play 5 hrs a day and the next week 4 hrs and so on. If that don’t work see a psycologist cause it’s effecting your life and you want to quit and know you have an addiction thats the first step
just STOP PLAYING, you idiot. delete it.
Go to Home Depot and buy a sledge hammer……. destroy your computer with said sledge hammer. In about a month when the shakes and nausea begin to abate you can start to get out and look for a job. At about the same time your desire for flesh and blood friends will return, touch base with some old friends or if they really don’t like you anymore you can try to make some new ones. You could join your local chapter of WA (WOW Anonymous), they do good work but they tend to want to replace WOW with the bible, up to you. Take up cooking as a hobby as your nutrition will have suffered over the last year and a new hobby will keep you from thinking too much about WOW. Most important, do not replace your computer untilyou have completely WOW free for at least 1 year.
Good Luck!
Find a new group? of friends.
Ehh people still watching those how to make gold movies but if they just read site like makewarcraftgold(.)info they would know instantly?
Its not an addiction. Drug addicts CANNOT live without drugs… Wow “addicts” CAN live without wow if they realize the great opportunities out in the? real world.
yeah im 14 as well i play wow and counter strike source alot.. but i also have? a great social life and do a fair bit of exercise 😀 (i just play wen im home doing nothing)^^
Sadly, im 14 years old and addicted, with, 80 druid 72 hunter, 70 DK, and 40 and lower, and a 64 and 55 horde, yea,? sad aint it, but i think im addicted but im not, ive played this game since its been out, i do have a life outside, but when im always home, im on wow
Dude, 29-49 twinks are out now, no one does? it anymore. Atleast horde doesn’t. Because it’s just no as much fun in pvp anymore… Maybe if the alliance didn’t have to have a 6 man premade as well as other handicaps, things would be different.. Oh well.
I’m a proud wow addict. I’m actually waiting to raid Ulduar. Finally made it to level 80 about 5 days ago. I started my own guild and things are sweet. In real life.. I go to work, talk to friends, get annoyed with stupid people in society and the media, or I can drive my mustang around really fast because it’s fun. I also have a? gf. she plays wow with me also. Living life on top of thangs! I mean yeah, I go out to movies, hang out with my few friends occasionally.. thats all I need though.
lol am 21 and i know that most people that play wow are addicted and either know it deep down or they dont know. my? suscription has ran out at the moment and i dont intend to pay again time for either break for a while or just to stop playing
tell u wat i? do and i swareit works so well, i make twinks so in a little time u feel like uve done so much and say in 1 hour on a lvl 39 or 29 twink you feel like uve done lotso f achieven=ments in that hour than on another char where u lvl and grind foreva anyway thtats wat i do im a lvl 29 paladin and ima make a druid lvl 39 so i can get a mount and pvp so do that and plz msg me with wat u thnink of my idea bye!
Yes. Im 20 too. But I have control over it. thats what every one? needs.
40 hours of gaming a week is not typical for anyone. I understand that friends can let you down but really think about how much your warcraft friends actually care about you. If you left the game how long would it be before they forgot you? Also, imagine the time when you do actually stop playing (the servers will close eventually) and what it will feel like once your achievements? in the game mean nothing. You say things have changed so I’m leaving this comment for others in your old position.
dude u cant get to addicted to WOW … have time for ur own life ..am 18 years old WoW player..and one thing dad i did to get me off for a while is get a dog, not pet, a dog..theyr keep you so active outside of the house..it worked for me and slowly i got away from WoW now i only play it llike 2-4 hours a day and i make sure i finsh eveyrthing i have to do first, school work, walk dog, work out, take? shower, WoW gets boring after an hour or so, thats what i did
lol your pretty much mocking her by playing and talking at the same time, but good for you, I can understand why her boyfriend was the way he was, she sounds like an annoying bitch that feeds off drama and thinks she can? change people just cause she wants to.
Anyways thats what I would have said to her if I could comment on her vid 😛
psh yea which friendly guild wars players are you finding?they all act? like assholes
I understand your point but thats not the situation here. I called them up multiple times and ask them if they wanted to do anything. All i get was a answering machine and no call back. I like to end this discussion about it please. This is all in the past. I’m 21? now working full time. Things have changed.
Will they bother asking when you sit on ur computer? u see the point? that`s? the problem aint it?
