The Internet.

Hey all, well for a few years I've used the internet. First I went on a little now I'm hardly off it (I mean it), and it's making me sad, fed up and many other problems.

My dad is constantly moaning at me - this makes me sad and angry towards him. Angriness generated by my obsession of using the web/computer, sad because he gets fed up. He says I should get a life etc - I think I need one.

I am online ever such a lot. I live in a wonderful place (Spain), where many people would love to live yet I'm always on the computer. So many other things I could do.

My eyesight is also bad due to the computer. I now need glasses, and without them I can't see well. My dads friend said he had that when he was always on it, now he's fine. Maybe my eyes could get back to normal, or will they always be damaged? It's short-sightedness (where you can't see long distances).

What things could I do? Go out with mates, go down the town or a bus to the city place - there's bowling, arcades the beach. So much to do. What should I do?

So I'm thinking of hardly using the computer - it's hard because I'm always on it - I wish I wasn't. You could say I'm obsessed, but there's so much to do on the web, yet I don't want to make my real life worse.

I'd only come on to post a little I suppose, and look at what us boys look at.

Anyway, please reply. Thank you.

It is hard and you get bored without the computer and such but if you start doing more stuff in real life, you'll get used to it and it'll be the oposite then. You'll use the computer when you can be bothered and you'll be out in real life all the time.

I'm not one to moan at you, I can hardly moan myself I'm on the PC an awful lot and my mum moans at me but it's just the same with her - she goes to the pub at weekend and sometimes during week, it makes her happy. I go on my PC - it makes me happy.

But just trust me if you've got real life friends and they want you to go out and stuff just go out, forget the computer once you're out you'll enjoy it and you'll start going out more. Try and find a hobby - football or anything what takes your mind off it. Then once you get in you'll enjoy the computer for whatever length you go on it, an hour or so. It's pretty simple or if you want get a "computer time" a limit the time the computers aloud on. Tell your mum to type in a pass and don't let you know the pass then you've basically locked you're computer.

There's many of stuff you can do.

Try to space yourself out saturdays and sundays i spend all day with my mates in town (Mostly) i dont really do anything on the 5 other days.

Meh, why quit, just priortise other stuff. What are the alternatives, when you have a day with nout to do, zoneing out and watching tv is even less constrcuive. Pc's fun, interesting and fills in the bordem.
When there is somthing to do, go do that instead, use the pc and internet for when nout betters happening o.0

I think he could do without the sarcasm, he’s asking for help here guys. :S

Get your self a hobby like football or something you’re interested it. You’ll meet new friends, keep fit and won’t be on the computer as much as you were before.
