Are you a computer addict?

Yea you could probably call me an addict. I tend to get very irritated if someone else tries to get me off the computer or get it before me. I spend probably 6 hours each day during the week (from 4:00 p.m. right when I get home to 10 or 11 p.m. before I go to bed. I take occasional breaks to go visit with my family and stuff. I feel bad for always being at the computer.) and 10-17 hours each day during the weekend depending on when I get up. I know it's way too much but I live out in the middle of nowhere and the only thing to do is get on the computer.

I am not sure what the question is, but if you want to know why computers are addictive, here is one main reason: the absence of Delay of Gratification.\nOn a computer, for every action, you get an almost immediate reaction: when you code, when you look for information, when you chat, as soon as you hit the return key, something happens to tell you whether you did right or not. The brain gets addicted to this because it doesn't need to wait for reward or punishment. This is in contrast with something like schooling, where you need to work for years with only momentary indications of success or failure (exams, report cards) to finally get the reward: a diploma, and the prospect of a good job.\nThis explains why young people prefer to play on the computer rather than studying: when you play a game, you know immediately if you did the right move. If you study, you are not certain that you will get the reward (the diploma), and you are not certain that the reward will be what you wanted (good job).

Yep, I'm a full fledge addict. I'm addicted to:\nYouTube movies -  a lot of Nip/Tuck stuff\nYahoo Answers\nChecking Facebook\nLooking at random sites\nListening to music\nChecking MySpace\nChecking my email\nPlaying menial games\n\nI'll spend upwards of 3-5 hours a day on the computer/internet. I'm not sure how I got addicted, but I am working on cutting down my time on it drastically. I usually use it as a time killer when I should be studying. Gotta buckle down.

It depends on who you are. You can use computers to isolate your self, or you can use them to expand your life. You cant JUST use computers, get out and play Frisbee once in a while! (Not virtual frisbee either)
