..my favourite MyLot..This happen just recently,I was watching some reality show,then I felt like watching it the other day again and I kept watching it everyday,not just that one particular show but a lot of others too.It is like I am hook up with TV.I came less online and everyday I would also log in to myLot but I would just respond to one or two discussions and just watched peoples comments and posts.Then, back to TV.Today I decided,to say "NO" to TV.I don't want to get addicted.I missed my MyLot.Does it happen to you also?You get hook up with something else and fail to turn up in myLot?

I used to addicted to TV too. Last year I got a new apartment and a new TV, and every afternoon when I was off work, I just sink myself in the coach and watching TV - no bath, no meal - just keep watching it and reluctant to stand up.
I know it is bad, but just can resisted it. Later on I can no long endure myself, so I told my friends to visit me everyday and talk to me. It helped. Soon I stop to addicted to TV and back to the ordinary life.
I don't know why I got this addiction yet, but I think you might also try my method, just invited some friends to your house everyday, and you will forget about the TV set, - it is just a machine right? :)

Hi brisk123, indeed this has happened to me, particularly when I got my new puppy. That is very time consuming in itself but all for the good of her well behaved development.
As for the t.v., yes this too. There was a show I started watching at 4p.m. each day and I had to watch it. I couldn't think, type and watch the show all at the same time and do really good at even just one of them. I dropped the show for the past year and have recently started watching it again. I don't watch a lot of t.v. other than that program and a bit of the local news.
It is very easy to be taken away from MyLot for other commitments, be it family, work or just for a brief change. It is nice to see you are back.
I can easily get addicted to MyLot too. T.V. is not something I will allow myself to get addicted to either as I find it is a huge waist of valuable time that I could be doing something much more worthwhile.
It is nice though, on occasion to just kick back and relax while catching a few shows.
Take Care.

I can do both - watch tv and do mylot. I'll listen to what's on tv, and watch it off and on. Sometimes I'll do that with shows that I've seen before, so I don't have to extend as much attention as with shows I haven't seen before.
