How do I make myself stop doing addictive activity? Thanks for a good answer. I'm afraid the first suggestion will not work for me. Suppose I want to check my inbox on StackExchange (easy goal). I do it in 1 min, check comments to my posts, but then I see some interesting related questions to the right and start browsing the site for 1 hour, getting into the trap. How can your advice help in this situation? Am I missing something? |

How do I make myself stop doing addictive activity? @Martin, thanks, I see your point. If fact, I added the item about spouse deliberately to emphasize that the problem is not doing 'bad'/unimportant activity, but when tasks that are important or at least acceptable (ask a question on this site, read a particular interesting news article, write a message to a friend via social network, hug you spouse for some time) turn into addictive activity that you can't stop. Hugging can be important, but hugging too much is not better than watching TV too much. The problem is in amount of time devoted and unclear goals. |
