Stop Playing World of Warcraft

World of Warcraft is a great game, but it is easy to lose track of time while playing, or to put too much importance on playing. Some gamers eventually feel that they are addicted and they begin to neglect other areas of their life, like the love of their life, family and friends. If their boy/girlfriend, friends or family starts complaining and feel sad, they should really start thinking of what's most important for them, a fantasy world on the computer, or people in real life. Here's some 'easy' steps for you

Steps

  1. Look at how your playing habits have been affecting your life. Common symptoms of internet or gaming addiction include loss of sleep, poor grades, poor hygiene, and lack of personal relationships. Procrastination is common, such as not eating on time or not cooking healthy foods because fast food makes more time for gaming.
  2. It will be beneficial to establish limitations and track your time. Something like a video game is an entertaining project that never ends, so you may literally apply days of time to it. Get an alarm clock.
  3. Spend more time in the company of others offline. Romantic relationships are an excellent method of breaking internet gaming addiction because they are also addictive and require one to spend a lot of time socializing face to face.
  4. As a final step, if nothing above worked, just uninstall it!
    • Psychological testing has shown that it takes about 21 days to develop a new habit or break an old one. Cessation is often a lot more effective than going 'cold turkey.'
    • A lot of gamers choose to sell their accounts when they feel they no longer have time for them. The top websites for selling an account are accounts.com, vgauction.com, markeedragon.com, and rpgreseller.com. Keep in mind this is against the terms you agreed to, however, even if caught, the worst that could happen would be that you would lose your account (which is the goal in the first place!). And finally.. ?.

Tips

  • Remember that life without it will be much, much better once you're over your addiction. Quitting is the hardest part but keep trying! You can do it!
  • Stay away from people who talk about it and might convince you to go back to playing it.
  • Turn your computer off. Leave it off for a while and do something else like go outside, or play sports. Your mind will forget it and you might stop playing it!
  • To break an addiction on virtual reality environments, it is important to develop a better reality which is preferable. Desire follows preference, which follows enjoyment.
  • Always stay away from people who make you play it or convince you to play it.
  • The World of Warcraft forums may make the transition from the "WoW" universe to the real world easier.
  • Online games never end. They are constantly updated throughout the months and years. You can always play again next week.
