***To what extent do you find that your addicted to Gupshup.
This forum has become like an extended family for me and there are lots of guppies I know personally , have talked to and met .
However at times I feel its almost gotten to be an addiction , its the first thing I sign into when I wake up and the last thing before I go to sleep.
All day if i’m home i’m invariably signed on even while listening to music , working , cooking .
At work if i get the chance i’ll log onto GS before i think of checking my emails.
Now I feel its even interfering with me studying
I’ve seen some people take it very seriously to the extent that it impacts their real-life decisions and its almost like they are not in a virtual world but translate the GS Experience to Reality !
How addicted are you to GS and how has it affected your personal life and to what extent ?
I get addicted whenever something is going on that I want an escape from. Otherwise I've been pretty free of addiction for 4 years. You just have to find other things to do that require you being offline. Like join a sports team or go to the gym. You'd spend that time on GS anyway.
I am when I am comparatively free. Like during summer break. But I think most of the time I can push myself to finish off my school work first before I get on GS. I think its all mind game
Isn’t it same like women like to discuss family politics
Problem is that some of us do not have compartmentalized work that we can finish off by 8 pm and then have the rest of the evening to ourselves.
I work from when I get up until I go to bed. Generally speaking, nonstop.
So, your mind and body makes you do things during the day that make you take a break. Like checking your emails, or reading online news, or going on GS or whatever.
Addicted to GS due to work nature, like PCG said , our work is straightshift.
But I would still come to GS only out of uncountable websites and virtual world.
However at home find little time to login due to other home addictions.
In reall life it does give me good ideas in my work , family and personal matters.
So can say is becoming part of life chapter till I remain hanging here.
namaan make a small software of configure the router of sheyn so that it block the gs website for some specified time :D and then I think sheyn will use proxies to access it same like a person is on drugs hahah
I'm normally not on here much. My normal routine is : wake up absurdly early --> have an AWESOME shower --> straighten hair --> make-up --> clothes ---> then go to work --> work work work --> drink 1 bottle of soda for lunch and complain about democratic politics or the economy with my coworkers --> work work work --> come home --> change into my apartment pants --> munch on some chips or cookies --> work out at the gym --> then come home --> take a shower --> back into apartment pants --> cook --> watch hulu.com for 1-2 hrs while eating whatever i cooked --> clean kitchen --> post in my blog here --> get OFF GS --> then call parents --> then fall asleep.

yup…am addicted…i remember when I had to do my studies…uffffffffffff…I hated it…coz I wanted to be on GS…sometimes I would be studying and posting on GS at the same time
I get quite bored when things are quiet on GS. I dnt post as much as I used to…but it is still fund to read all the drama on Life1 and Pakistan affairs forum
**Yea I was addicted. I could be on GS for 13-14 hours non stop. If I wasn't posting then I was reading Life1's stuff. I still do it.
I have to force myself to find other things than GS.. That's why I've started taking some looong breaks just to keep it balanced.
It looked like I was a pure NOLIFE (I still feel that).
I've started posting in different sections also, because once you're in cafe you start flooding like hell..
