    Default Hello, My Name is Janna and I am an Addict...

    Yep, the title says it...I am an addict of Badger and Blade. I have been sitting her for hours today reading post after post. The bad part, I have a quiz tomorrow in my Psychiatric Nursing class and I really should be studying, but I just cannot seem to pry myself away from the computer long enough to engage myself in Psychiatric Nursing. Don't get me wrong, I am enjoying the class. I am one of the weirdos who loves psych, but at the same time I love Badger and Blade. I am looking at razor porn and brush porn feeding my addiction and wishing that I could buy, buy, buy. My AD is kicking in but the cash flow is lacking (which I guess is a good thing, but it is a painful thing too). I would ask for help, but I am kinda liking this addiction. The responsible thing to do is log off my computer and study. I can always come back to Badger and Blade when I am done, but I will be wondering what is going on in my absence. There is just too much to see and do here. I love Badger and Blade. It is my virtual home. It is the place I can go and hang out with like minded people and share the joys of shaving, coffee, tea, and other things. Who would possibly want to give that up???

    lol, you're procrastinating. You know you are. I always hated studying no matter how much I loved the class and subject. And college for me was back in the early 90's when the internet was just getting rolling... oh, man, how old do I feel now.

    Yeah, I am procrastinating. You are right about that. I am good at that too. I feel the need to play NCAA 10 but Hubbie is gaming right now and I dont want to kick him off the TV. Plus, I am having a lot of fun here on B&B tonight. Yeah, I am back in school in my 30's. I remember in the mid 90's when I was on yahoo and their mail was rocketmail!!! Yeah, those were the days. If I had stuck to my guns then and not played things would be different now, but then again, I still wouldn't change it.

    I can forgive you for your B&B addiction and AD's, but I can't forgive you for your avatar!

    I feel your pain, Janna. I love it here, too, and wonder what I am missing when I have to get off. I also feel like there will be too much to catch up on if i wait too long, plus there's the "freshness" factor - I don't want to be too long replying in a thread after others have clearly "moved on" while I was gone.

    If you find a solution, please share it. I hope you are far enough along in your psychological training that you can identify the root cause of this addiction, and provide us with a painless solution that doesn't require having to log off of B&B!

    I would think that reading some of our posts would be considered case studies for an exam in the psychiatric area.

    Lets take this down a Psychiatric line of thought. Specifically drugs. If you take some Zoloft, Wellbutrin, or any other line of SSRI's it should bring you out of your depressed state. You will then feel good about being on B&B and not worry about studying.B&B baby, B&B.

    LOL...You would think that I would know a way to leave B&B and do something else but my addiction is just too strong. Yeah, the SSRI's really do help!!

    You are done for. You no longer have a chance. B&B has become your sole purpose in life. WooHoo.

    Well, the good news is that despite the fact that I spend most of my time here on B&B, I still managed to just ace my quiz!!! Whoo Hoo!!!
