Is IPKKND Making you Selfish?

I have seen a distinct change in my behavior and friends and family have complained about it.
I am always in front of the Laptop, either on IF or watching the show/reruns or reading FFs and OSs.
I am quite a romantic movie buff and nowadays I watch no movies or oter serials because I feel it doesn't compare to ARHI romance.
I used to read a lot and now I don't do that either.
Even at work, though I am big chatterbox, I shun company and often read IF and updates and write FF. Of course I love my work and so get if done. Plus there are deadlines to meet. So I survive.
I am mostly lost in ARHIland and by the time people get my attention they are pissed off with me.
Anyone experiencing or behaving the same?
I am determined to shake out of this somehow. But this addiction is kind of difficult to break off!

Babe, been there done that!

There were a lot of us who experienced this for the first time with GHSP-- we formed friendships, forged sisterhoods, made bonds due to GHSP

IPK is the same for many of us-- that same madness

But it will pass, don't worry. Once the show starts to deteriorate, it will pass

don't worry-- you will get your life back at some point

It took me and my friends about 9 months when we did this with GHSP, but IPK has been much better at keeping the quality high, and I think that you'll probably be this way for at least another 4-5 months

In January 2011, after the GHSP wedding and then the subsequent decline of the show-- I felt like I got my life back. I had lost contact with family members, friends and even the world over the past 8 months-- i realised how obsessed I had become

My llife has since come back to me.

don't worry you'll be ok

Hey ditto with books and DVDs. I got a ton of them and left it untouched.

Hope so too. I did follow Geet and a few other romantic stuff. But I have never been this hooked and it is alarming to me.

I share your plight. I considered myself to be very grounded and very sensible individual but have been reduced to an 'adddict'. I do not allow my children to watch television on weekdays but just do not know how to get myself out of it. I get withdrawl symptoms if i do not get my fair dose of this show. I am waiting for the day when the show will slide sown,at least i will get my life back then.

Either the show has to slide or we have to break free. The second option would be good because IPKKND is also a great spice element in life.
