12 Step Program Of Recovery For Web Addicts


1) I will have a cup of coffee in the morning and read my PAPER newspaper like I used to, before the Web.



2) I will eat breakfast with a knife and fork and not with one hand typing.



3) I will get dressed before noon.



4) I will make an attempt to clean the house, wash clothes, and plan dinner before even thinking of the Web.



5) I will sit down and write a letter to those unfortunate few friends and family that are Web-deprived.



6) I will call someone on the phone who I cannot contact via the Web.



7) I will read a book... if I still remember how.



8) I will listen to those around me about their needs and stop telling them to turn the TV down so I can hear the music on the Web.



9) I will not be tempted during TV commercials to check for email.



10) I will try and get out of the house at least once a week, if it is necessary or not.



11) I will remember that my bank is not forgiving if I forget to balance my checkbook because I was too busy on the Web.



12) Last, but not least, I will remember that I must go to bed sometime... and the Web will always be there tomorrow!

In a fortnight this place will be a ghost forum most of the time. It's only because of all this free time that everyone on here spends loads of time on here. I wouldn't say that anyone on here is online all of the time.

Sounds like some friends on another board... Hardly having time for more than a quick PM, or replying in one or 2 threads:( . But as long as they're doing what's best for them it's worth it.
