you need to quit cold turkey, friend. \n\nit's pretty bad if you can't even study. you're not going to get any real fulfillment out of your video games, so find a safe place to lock it up or tell someone you live with to hide it from you. maybe if you lay off you'll enjoy the real world and maybe even meet a girl...

Games are actually addictive... (I found this out when I found out indoor tanning is addictive). It's not like a drug addiction but it affects your brain the same way. \nI would find a way to keep yourself busy. My boyfriend was the same way and he was smoking grass when he played. It came in hand in hand. Once he stopped smoking, he was able to wean himself off gaming a little too. You have to try to set a timer or something to get yourself off and find other things to do. Go for a walk or go to the mall or anything to get out of the house. It is good you registered for class... keep busy!

Turn off the computer. Turn off the TV. Turn off the music.\n\nGo to a quiet room, where you can be by yourself.\n\nGet your study materials, pen, paper, books, etc together.\n\nStudy.

Stay online, so that in between breaks you can surf the net, or fix a quiz (pretty exciting stuff for me), drink lots of energy drinks and coffee, turn on the television while you study, sit on an uncomfortable chair, like a hard one, so that it's not comfy enough to snooze on.\nKeep some strong smelling lemon or citrus nearby to sniff on. Studies show they help to keep you feeling 'refreshed'.

Yes, more than twice a day is too much. You can cut the addiction by doing some sports, going out and having fun, and keeping yourself busy with something else.

first, don't keep coming back here to check for answers. Just stop studying for a while, then tell yourself that you have to finish so much and do it. Don't stop till you finish.

play  games that require you to use words.  example:\nscrabble.   and if you dont have a partner, you can play online with other people in your computer

If your asking wether you should study or game, i would play the game but i know studying is the best choice. so study! (if that's what ur asking of course)

Turn off your stereo.  Turn off you I Pod.  Or if you can't live without music, try listening to classical music or smoothe instrumental jazz music.  Vocal music was always a big distraction for me when I was studying in college.  Instrumental music helped me concentrate.  \n\nThe book "The Mozart Effect" has very interesting insights regarding music and brain function.

Yes you are an addict. To realize it is the first step in overcoming it. But really do you want to stop??? Thousands of people are waiting for you to answer their burning questions. THEY NEED YOU MAN! Call in sick and keep going!!!

TREAT GAMBLING LIKE EVERY OTHER ADDICTION (Drinking, smoking) ... just don't give it too much importance !!!\n\nI used to smoke one year in my life ... and I became addicted to it ! I couldn't stop ! Then, one day, after I bought a pack of cigarettes and I opened and I was about to smoke the first : ... guess what ?!? I throwed away the entire new pack !\n\nand never smoke anymore !\n\nSO IS GAMBLING !!! Just don't go to your local wagering or suspend your account on your online booker. Stay away from gambling, eventually bet what you can afford !\n\nI don't think gambling help centres help 100 %\nI think the wish to quit is in yourself and that is where you have to start with ...

if you wanna stop all you have to do is use self control. it will be hard if your that "addicted" but if you put your mind to it, i think you can stop.

hahahaaaa!  from the perspective of the video gaming boyfriend, rip ur clothes off and jump between him and the screen. or, have him choose betwixt the gaming and you, or go out places once in a while where their aint games, or, buy some games that BOTH of you can play and annoy him by being on his computer all the time so he wants to game less wen ur around : P
