Help! I Have A Serious Addiction And I Need My Friends Help

I was wondering what happened to you! Several of my friends there have gotten addicted to the games there too. I keep getting invitations, but thankfully I always delete them. Even though I don't do the games there...I can't point a finger at you. I'm just as addicted to the games at Pogo. Probably the only sure cure is a power outage.

cold turkey is the only way to get away from those things

I use to be an addict at farmtown too. But have slowed down a bit and will only go there occasionally. Other games in facebook, I have not been yet. Hope to meet you there someday.

Ha Ha!!! Welcome to my HELL!!! Yeah, once you get into some of those games, there's no turning back. I was also introduced to FB from a friend here and I just sat on it foe a while.......I wasn't really sure what the point was. But then I started playing some of the games and it was all over except for the carpal tunnel and eye strain. I can't complain though.....I get to play games, take quizzes, and I have nearly 40 friends on my friends list who are either myLot members or former myLot members. So, I get the best of both worlds, PLUS I've met quite a few new friends on FB. The one sure fire way to end your addiction is illustrated in the photo below. Other than that......you're on your own, Are we having fun yet???

I'm addicted also. I am on Pet Society and Mafia Wars. I can't get enough of those games. Yes, my entire life suffers because of Facebook, but I do love Pet Society. There are so many things you can do there. I stopped playing the Restaurant one; I could keep up with it.

Hi pye, OMG!!! that is a lot of games you are on, I only go on Fairyland Garden as its helping the rainforest, but i don't think I could cope with all those games, yes pye, you are addicted, i though I was bad with the Fairyland, lol! but its good to enjoy yourself, why not? have fun. Bright Blessings. Tamara

Quit facebook! lol I have it but didnt get into the games I do pogo and thats enough!

LOL - sorry no help here, I don't spend much time at all on facebook just because of all you listed, I know I would never get anything else done oh plus I have my own addiction - Twitter :( Love the quick 'hit and run tweets' but some fun friends there too - including a whole bunch of AC writers :) Suppose I should login to facebook and see how my farm is doing though appreciate the fact that my friends keep helping me out there :)

Hiya Pye.. Welcome to the club of gaming addicts, LOL. I have been addicted for months there now, and I've yet to find that one day whereby I don't log in at all, unless I'm super busy. I would love to be your Mafia buddy there. I'm not on those cafe games and Farmville, but I adore how the graphic looks like; I'm more of the Street Racing dude and Mafia Wars; crazy for these games. If you wanna add me up, I'll send you my link through pm yeah. Would be great to have more gaming buddies to add to my existing members. Best advice: Just go with the flow and don't fight the addiction. ROFL......

hi pye -- i haven't played games on facebook. my addiction to games is at pogo.com, msn.com, king.com, freearcade.com and occasionally other sites. I don't know of a cure. Maybe someone will start a 12-step group for game addicts. GAA (Games Addicts Anonymous) I wouldn't join because I haven't reached bottom. I'm still enjoying the time I spend playing.

Yeah I have noticed you over there a lot just lately haha! I defected to facebook a while ago now because of the games and hey I am still there so if there is a cure for the addiction of the games there then I have not found it yet! Although I have cut down on the amount of games I play, only because there are just not enough hours in the day, unfortunately! At the moment I am focusing on mafia wars, pet society and yoville!

hi pyewacket I have not got on facebook so am not addicted' but I watch my adult son play on toontown and he is absolutely addicted to it. he spends hours on this and has many friends 'there. I have no idea what the cure would be. I seem to be addicted to mylot myself. wow.

Bwahahaa - I too am addicted to Cafe World at the moment! YoVille too - just can't stop myself! I also have an Island, and FarmTown and FarmVille - but I've had to put my farms out to pasture as the cafe is taking up all my time at the moment. It's horribly addictive, and I can't remember having a life! I hardly ever have time for myLot anymore, so one addiction has made way for another one. A bit sad, really - but we're having fun ... aren't we?

Sure there is a cure. Just log off of the site and never go there again. Don't do it to yourself. It might be easier to only limit yourself to a certain amount of time there. But, you know you won't be able to do it. Do the right thing. You know it is best. Take the right path.

Are we friends over there? My main addiction there has been FarmTown. I've been playing that game forever it seems. That is one of the reasons I haven't been here at myLot much. Too much time playing carious games at FB. i PLAY SLOTS OF VARTIOUS STYLES, mAFIA wARS AND THATS IT BASICALLY. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB!!~

Sometimes it is good to chill out and play games, as it is good for stress and just chilling. I am on facebook, but I just use it to keep up on my family, without all the myspace stuff.

Hello Pye! Yes, I play a lot of games on facebook too. I'm not addicted to most of them, thank goodness as I would never get anything else done if I was! LOL! However, I love Yoville! Yoville is my favorite game ever and I think I may be a little addicted to that one! As for a cure, I'm not sure. I used to have one for Yoville, but not any more. You see I first played Yoville on Myspace. I really loved it when I played there for quite a while too. However, back then, the game was a little less developed than it is now. Like, you didn't really advance up levels, as I recall, when I first started playing, you didn't get new abilities and/or special prizes upon advancing up each of those levels, etc. So basically, after I had finished furnishing and decorating my apartment, bought a house and finished furnishing and decorating that, and had played at the dirt bike racing game a few times, (they didn't have the fishing game back then)...well, after all that, I just sort of ran out of new things to do and so after a while it got boring and gradually I stopped playing. But now that you get some new ability and or prize after reaching a certain level, new rooms added to your apartment, and now that they are constantly adding new things to the game at every turn, all of which has been going on since I started playing the game on facebook, well, now, getting bored with it and losing interest is not likely to happen. lol... Another game I like a lot and probably spend a little to much time is Castle Age. I guess the cure would be whenever I completely conquer all the quests and everything in the game, though that will take quite a while! lol So I guess, basically the cure would be, finding an activity that interest you more than those game so you spend less time playing the games and more time doing something else perhaps? Anyway, did you say you played Yoville? I loves Yoville! We needs to be friends over on facebook so I can see your Yoville pad!

Hi Pye, the only game I am hooked on there is Fairyland as you know as you are one of my friends there...it is all fr a good cause though! Yes I do get work done on one of the sites that I am on as well as here though every now and then I do pop back into Fairyland, do not ask me what the answer is to cure your addiction as I don't know the cure to mine either! See you in facebook!! hugs LoLo

The only thing I can say is I am so glad I do not know how to get into the facebook games right now. I would be in terrible trouble if I found another thing onloine to get addicted too! Just looking at some of the names you mentioned did sound intriguing to me and I am forcing myslef not to go to facebook to investigate. I do hope you get over your addiction, or at least have fun trying!

LOL, sorry pyewacket, I can't help you on this one. I too am hopelessly addicted to several games. Farmville was my constant until I finally got sucked into Mafia Wars a couple weeks ago, and then as soon as Cafe World premiered...lol, well you get the picture. I've been cooking up a storm the past week, but none that I can eat myself! I play more games too, but lately these have been the main ones. The only advice I can give you is to try and find a balance. The games are fun, but if you need the money, spend a little time here too. Best of luck! :)
