i stop playing the game since school started ( about 2 months ) and the whole entire time i have been randomly dreaming and going onto the website to check out my friends character even though mine though i deleted all my characters. This isn't daily more like 2-3 times a week. I never really played it that much about 5 hours MAX, weekends though i would stay up pretty late playing it ( sometimes till 2am doing raids). I started playing it when cataclysm came out and i got it for christmas. I have always been popular and before the game i never had dark under eye circles but after, i got very dark under eye circles, my social life collapsed, even my BEST friends wouldn't talk to me, and i fell into a depression ( considered suicide numerous times because i felt like shit in school - never would go through it because i am very religious) the whole semester, not to mention my mom constantly yelling at me and saying how ugly i have become. around late august i looked my self in the mirror i hated who i have become so i quit the game immediately, cancel subscription and deleted all the characters. These 2 months of school have been perfect, me and my friends are back again and I'm back to normal ( except under eye circle -__-). I have also played this game when lich king came out ( 1st time i ever played) and i honestly quit the 2 months of playing because i was honestly a horrible player. What got me back in was cataclysm which i got for christmas and i became one of the best known healers, and richest, in my server.... Now that a new expansion is coming out i have already filed for a recovery for the characters i deleted and i'm considering going back to the game. I REALLY DON'T WANNA GO BACK but its an addiction and i feel like i am going to blow up if i don't. What kept me going for the 2 months of school was family guy, south park, and american dad but now that the shows are ending i see myself more and more wanting to go back to the game. I spent about 30 mins going through exploits,cheats, and hacks yesterday just for this game.Today i even looked for my mom credit card number so i can write it down so i will get it, because she hate this game more than i do. SO my question is what should i do, i hate the game but i am so addictive i can't stop thinking about it and a missing feeling is in me and its getting stronger everyday, or should i go back to the game but live a depressing school life. I have a very addictive personally and i need to have the feeling like i don't like it ( when i was a horrible player ) or i finished it.The problem with wow its almost impossible to reach one of them.
- Don't say time limit it WON'T WORK FOR ME!!
- also if theres anything that can be done to remove under circles i would really like that
- i am also on a mac so its the only the video that will work for me.I refuse to also play any other game system video game because they are to easy and i honestly hate them overall.

I am a former WOW player as well, and yeah I know where your coming from it is friggen addicting. BUT I can tell you in all truth that not playing it you are happier hence having more fun in the long run. What got me to quit and made it easier, is realizing that your putting your whole life into something that is backed up on Drivers in some building that can be erased in the flick of a finger.
And if you REALLY think about it its not even that fun of a game, its just addicting and starts to feel like a job, and since you've put so much work into it you start to think your actually losing something when you quit. But its not even there in the first place.
Back up and look at your life, if your depressed/suicidal and considering stealing money from your mother to play it, its obviously not the right direction you want to be going.
As with any addiction fill in the space of time you would be playing WOW with something else, get some skills, chill with friends/fam, WOW is a fast and quick route to the Losers of the planet road.
Stay strong and resist, Hope I helped.
Good luck!
