I used to be addicted to FFXI when I first bought it. Almost everyday someone would ask me if I had even logged off to sleep. Sometimes I didn't. I couldn't focus on things, had the strange dreams dealing with FFXI when I would sleep. I played night and day.
Things slowed down after 4 of my good friends quit. I stopped logging on at all for while. I get on maybe twice on weekends and once during the week now. Perfectly fine with me. I guess I needed that break. But if you're having problems, like already stated, set a time when you will log off at night for bed. Or like me, take a small break, a week or two.

I remember the first time I saw that warning screen about not letting the game interfere with your life. I thought Yeah, right. I have self-control.
Curse you! Curse you, Square-Enix! Curse you for turning me into an addict.
Just give me a few more levels! You know I'm good for it, baby!

I play every night and stay up late to get things done that could be done any other time. I am an addict, but I don't think it really matters.
-I never did homework before the game.
-I spent almost every night from 10pm - 2am playing video games before.
-Nothing has changed really.
Is there something wrong when your life takes next to no impact from something like this?

I was going to make myself write a speech for class today. Instead I mined, and brought home about 60k. I feel the mining was more important.
I am addicted too ><
Not even the Beautiful RE4 has pryed me away from this game. In school all I think about is my LS and my RDM. I pretend to type things in "/l " mode in my mind. I honeslty think im going crazy. >< Sometimes I talk to myself like im in FFXi and im talking to my LS. I retell what happned to me in my mind, thogh no one is listening. I see the animations of a taru casting magic all the time. I hear the "footisst" sound of protect in my head >< I bother my friends about my FFXI adventures althought they couldnt give a shit. I day dream about farming, hunting HNMs and dying. I sometimes scribble my list of new armor ill buy. ; ; I cancelled a movie night with my friends cause I wanted to do G3 with my LS. Right now as I type this I keep closing the window down and eyeing the damn FXI Icon. Damn you. I love and hate this game.

my addiction slipped...
so i dont have an addiction anymore. tho' i do log in everyday, but the length of my stay in vanadiel from a day to day basis will depend on scheduled events with my god shell and/or if my younger brother is online (since we live apart).
i sit in front of my screen earlier today before coming to work, bored out of my mind. i retired a few of the jobs i used to play because either 1)maxed out as a sub or 2)buying new equipment to play that job again is expensive now than it was before.
but it sure was a natural high when i first played this game. i'm the same with jazper, this is my first mmo, so the experience is uncanny.
