honestly, it is getting serious that most people spend over 18 to 19 hours these days on systems and mobile phones watching the market, trading on the move with their mobile. the addiction is getting out of hand. i think i am probably getting into this kind of life.
what could be the possible means of prevention. i need to have my normal life back.
LOL, you mean to say that for 5-6 hours a days, you slept, you eat do your chores and then just sit in front of your computer all day long? I don't know if you are bull shitting us here or really telling us the truth In any case it's simple if you wanted to return to your normal life.
Stop, simply as that. Just like any addiction, if you have the will power then you can overcome your addiction. Worst case is that you seek medical help, but there's no need for it. Just quit !!!
Saying stop does seem easy enough, but it's hard to do for people who are already addicted. I myself was once a victim of that addiction, well it's very difficult for me to get rid of that bad habit. But finally I found a pretty good way, namely by busy myself with other activities, such as sports.
But if it feels like a failure and the addiction is at a heavy level, then it's better to go to a psychologist to ask for the right advice to overcome that bad habit.
