Question by bill: Video Game Addiction – Help!?
I have played a game called King of Kings 3 for a little more than a year now. This game has really had a bad impact on my life. I have become addicted to spending real money to make my character better. Overall, I probably spent $ 2,000 on the game. I played it for 6+ hours a day, and hardly see my wife anymore. Today I found myself paying $ 50 into the game and asked myself why. I now see that I am wasting my money. Money that I need for bills, money that could have been spent to have a wonderful dinner with my wife. Money that if nothing more, could have been saved.

I am at the starting line of ending my addiction. I gave away all my items on the game and told all of my friends that I am quitting. I uninstalled the game and want to find new activities that don’t ruin my real life. It was sad, people in the game said how they would miss me, but I have to do this for myself.

I need to fix my life, how can I make sure that I don’t fail and fall back into wasting my life on pointless video games? Are there any support groups in the USA? Should I see a psychologist? I don’t want to fail by going back to this game. I have wasted probably more than a thousand hours on this game, I am hurting because I had to say goodbye, but I can’t live a normal life with this video game.

I’ve had other addictions too. I played halo reach just as much and it impacted me almost as badly. Now my brother wants me to buy Diablo III. I know I can’t do that. How can I make sure not to fall into this trap again? How do I get my wife to end her own internet addiction? How do I take control back of our relationship? I want to have the relationship I used to have with my wife and my family.
