People need to be 'weaned off' their medication....as with any addiction...you will suffer if you just stop totally. You need to gradually reduce your time spent on the forum. Another treatment is to have an elastic band around your wrist and everytime you think of Mudcat you "ping" the band!!
Eventually you will associate all of us lot with pain and suffering and you will not be tempted.......
Alternatively If you make yourself sit at the computer for 10 hours at a time you will be so pleased to get away from it.
My suggestion is to prioritise your time.......obviously Mudcat needs to be top of the list....so case closed!!!
