Addicted to Forums!

I'm addicted to posting on message boards, blogs and social media. Addicted to online socializing. Anyone can relate?
 
I feel a bit the same way :P . But, yes - it's important to have other things in your life, so that it doesn't become all-consuming. For example, I'm trying to pay more attention to my railway modelling.
 
There are some days where I will post a lot on the forums I am on and that takes a chunk out of my day. I just really have to be in the mood to do that. I am addicted to forums but I am gaming most of the time so I am not letting it take over my whole life.
 
I got through phases when I'll be really active sometimes and then will not go on forums at all for a while.

I think if a forum is really active it's very easy to get sucked in.
 
Forum dwelling has become part of my 'me time' I tend to feel antsy when I'm unable to take a little time to escape into the virtual world of forums.
 
I post on forums, I publish on article sites, I work on my own forum, I publish on my own blogs. I spend 8-10 hours every day online. But I won't call this addiction, this is my job. I am a full-time online worker.
 
I do enjoy posting on varieties of forums, it simply a pleasure to meet people from different countries coming together to share worthwhile conversations. It isn't possible that way for me to get real people from social medias that is helpful.

Apsrt from that, I enjoy writing, I can cover up large number of forum posts a day, create 1-2 articles everyday, complete other mom related forum gigs online.
