I am amazed on why some people would be addicted to playing games on the net or in their cellphones, just like my husband who has this habit now of surfing the net in his cellphone every night while beside me at bed. But I noticed that for the past weeks, I am now also addicted to playing Diamond Twister at my cellphone. Whenever I am riding home from work in a jeepney, I would be playing it, until I noticed I am already at the place where I should alight! Then, at night after a bit of bonding with my husband on his cellphone playing Talking Tom or Talking Angela, I would in a little while be on my phone to play Diamond Twister, until late at night. Oh my, I am an addict already. Ha ha ha What about you, what’s your nice addiction?

I've quit playing all FB games before. I am a certified addict myself! But then it all came to an end. That is because of myLot. But lately I;ve been addicted to games again. But those that doesn;t require me to get up or wait for sometime to harvest or plow lol. Now what I'm playng is just Candy Crush! Sometimes words with friends and diamond dash too.

I haven't actually played candy crush yet. Can you teach me where i can download one for free, enelym? Is diamond dash the same as diamond twister?

I will try diamond dash at facebook and see if it's similar to diamond twister. I like Bejeweled blitz. It's also addicting.

All android phones and tabs have that, even iPhone too. You can download it for free. I am playing these games on Facebook only. I am not sure if DD is same as DT... I haven't seen diamond twister yet. Diamond Dash can be compared a bit to bejeweled blitz.

Internet addiction - Addicted to internet
I am tittle bit addicted to internet and computer,but i always put limit on my internet usage.There is a proper time table for me on the net.In the morning i spend one hour on the net and in between my job i spend two to three hours.Now am working as a network engineer in a software firm.In between my work i get lot of free time.If i get any free time mi like to spend it on mylot and other money making sites.Now a days gaming and Internet addiction is a growing problem facing many families, couples, and individuals both young and old. This psychological disorder is defined as uncontrolled gaming and Internet-related behavior which interferes with or impairs normal functioning, and causes severe emotional distress for the individual, their family, friends, or their loved ones. Gaming and Internet addiction can also disrupt one’s academic performance, or their job performance. Game and Internet addicts typically and unwittingly make games and cyberspace the top priority in their daily lives.

My husband ever since getting an Android phone would always be at his phone, beside me at night. He keeps surfing for somethng to download, since we have WIFI at home. Thus, so we could bond even with that, i would side by side watch what he is playing. And he would open a game we both love and enjoy, Talking Tom and Talking Angela. While it is true that internet and games can be addicting, we should try to limit ourselves from it. But one thing is sure, they really are entertaining though.

I was never addicted v to any games honestly speaking. My only v addiction was mylot. Everytime I am b online I needed to be on this b site. Every time I open an Internet browser I just had to always open the mylot page. So that was just about it until vi was introduced to candy crush by my bf that now when I am feeling that I am tired of Mylotting I would open candy crush. So whenever the level is to hard I would tell myself that I do not like b to play anymore but I never got around to removing the game from my phone v and I would open it still and c try to play and maybe I can escape the level. Haha

That's it chiyosan, the challenge of beating a certain level is what makes me addicted to it. Every time, i would like to beat my former game with it. Candy crush, oh that's a nice game too. I came across that one time , but Mylot has prevented me from playing it.

Glad to know you are addicted to this, you know my work, so much of research papers almost ready to be sent for publication in journals abroad, have to give them final touch after i reach home, plus the health issues; that makes me inactive and sad at times, so there is no time to play games in real or in net or in mobile phones, yes my grand daughter has a video game player; she plays.

I think your are too busy to be into these online or offline games. Me, i only do them when i have free time. I also do it when i am waiting for my turn in the doctor's clinic. Makes me not impatient in waiting for my turn.

Before two years.. I was very highly addicted to computer games be it online or offline. I used to just play games as if it were my only reason for existence in this world. But, at current, thanks to my situation and atmosphere which has showered upon me many responsibilities that hardly allow my brain to think to open the games already present on my pc. Now, I am senior secondary student, for whom even twenty four hours present in the day is not enough to meet responsibilities as a student I have. But, I feel now nice that I was addicted at that time as I could enjoy games at the time when I was free.

I think when one is bored and not busy, the tendency is to find entertainment, thus many would turn to games. Though, some would really get addicted to it. It becomes a bad habit. A little addiction to these games is okay, i think.

Believe it or not, I also play some games on my iPhone. I play games if I am just chillin on the couch or even in the bathroom. LOL. I also play some games on my iPad. And with Apple, I can play games with my kids from phone to phone or iPad to iPad. It is addicting. But it is also fun.

Indeed it is a nice addiction, if it doesn't control you, inertia. Control in a way that even if you have to do an important chore you would leave it for another time because you want to play the game. Playing games with your kid on the gadget can be a good bonding time. Keep it up, Inertia!

Oh, believe me, it does not control me. I control it. But it is fun to play games. I like doing that to pass the time. You know how it is when you're bored. I do love my electronic gadgets. LOL.

I am a very addictive gamer. Be it my cell phone or pc or lappy, I just go on playing games until I win. There's a popular game called cityville in facebook which had no winning limit. And so I went on playing it until I was about to fail in one exam. Then I gave it up. Is a very bad habit.

Oh my, if it is that way , then it's a bad habit. Imagine you are about to fail in an exam because you weren't studying well but playing games! As for me, i don't find it that way. I am happy that i am entertained when i am playing it. When i am at the clinic waiting for my turn, i keep playing it. Thus, waiting is not a bothersome thing to me anymore. At night, i find it a good way to get sleepy. Just playing in my cellphone for how many minutes, would already make me sleepy.
