How do I get unaddicted to CC?

<p>So yeah, I have around 1.4k posts and I think I should just concentrate on school work next year. Problem is, everytime I type stuff, I always wanna take a peek at CC. I need to get off this is prevent myself from ruining my junior year grades. Advice?</p>

<p>You're asking CC addicts how not to be addicted to CC? Good luck with that.</p>

<p>You could just avoid the Internet altogether while you need to do homework/study and not let yourself go on until after you're done every night.</p>

<p>^ it is not easy lol</p>

<p>^ Agreed. I think you need to go to rehab.</p>

<p>You're off to a great start. The first step is admitting you have a problem.</p>

<p>this is so funny...its easy to get off of cc..get banned! and then don't even try to come on cc...simple...</p>

<p>Change your password to something insanely difficult to remember. Then, if you want to come back next summer, use email verification to get it back.</p>

<p>It's easy, actually! Uh...You use Firefox? If not, download it. Then look at the Leechblock application. It automatically blocks sites after you visit them for a certain amount of time (0, if you want) within certain time periods. That is, I can say that I have 3 minutes on CC total between 7AM and 10PM on Friday. You can manually override it, but you can also set it so that you CAN'T override it. Really convenient during the school year.</p>

<p>Just make a troll thread with profanity. Works like a charm! I GUARANTEE OR YOUR FULL MEMBERSHIP STAYS!</p>

<p>Be like AOM. Get banned.</p>

<p>Use a library computer without Internet.</p>

<p>Getting into college worked for me :), but maybe not for more hardcore addicts.</p>

<p>get off the computer and read a book, watch a movie, or hang out with friends... usually, you end up forgetting you even have a cc account, then you won't be so addicted...</p>

<p>CC owns our souls... you can't lose your addiction.</p>

<p>(Hopefully what jenkster said will apply for me in 3 weeks).</p>

<p>Getting a job decreased my CC time substantially. Actually, it decreased ALL my free time.</p>

<p>I'm with brillar on this one. But, I'd say just avoid your computer maybe. I've been trying. Without avail.</p>

<p>Wow, several people with 1.4K posts. Must be a trend.</p>

<p>Again, get banned.</p>

<p>Troll like crazy and you'll be off for a week at least. You will be so addicted to CC that you'll create another account and get banned permanently.</p>

<p>Wahahahaha...it's impossible! CC is like Big Brother...it will infiltrate your life!!</p>
