How can I stop watching tv?
Why don't you start by just limiting how long you watch it. Tell yourself that you are going to turn it off for one hour tomorrow, and just increase this time by one more hour each day. Get outside during that hour, so that you are not tempted to turn it on; do some activity that you enjoy.....listen to music, read a good book, go visit a friend, etc. Yes, I would agree with you, tv is very addictive. Good luck to you! :-) Here is an interesting website that you might want to read: http://www.turnoffyourtv.com/healtheduca...
So, I'm addicted to watching porn…?
Ok, so I'm addicted to watching porn. I'm 20, almost 21 and I've been watching porn for years and now I can't stop. I've tried to stop, but I can't. The longest I've ever gone without watching porn was a week, which was about a month ago and now I'm watching porn again. I really have a problem. It's become an increasingly bad habit. I mean it's not like I watch porn all day long or every day. I watch one or two videos every couple days. But it's still a huge problem. I know it's wrong. I'm a Christian and they've talked about it at church and how wrong it is and I just want to burst into tears because I know it's wrong and I feel incredibly ashamed and guilty about it afterwards. I can't talk to anybody about it because I don't think my friends would understand and I DEFINITELY know my family won't. But sometimes I just want to scream 'Hey! I'm addicted to watching porn and I need help to stop!' You know? It's eating me up inside. I just, can't stop. Please help. Only serious answers!
How can I get my Parents to stop watching so much tv?
Unfortunately, some people do get addicted to the television. I totally understand how you feel. I am total outdoor person/ project starter. I am doing anything BUT watching TV! Reading, drawing, painting, gardening, exercising, walking my dog at the park, working my butt off to make more money, going out to movies, restaurants, etc. meeting new people etc!!! :D I personally do not watch TV at ALL. I don't even have one in my room. My fam likes to sit in front of the TV all day, and that's cool for them, but you can't get them to stop, unfortunately. It has to come from inside them to want to change, and if they CHOOSE not to, they won't regardless of what you say. Just find ways to live AROUND it.

Recently, I've started watching TV shows, and now I can't stop. I get distracted while I am doing homework, and I just can't get myself to turn the computer off. What do I do?
You are not disciplined enough to study at home because you are mixing leisure with study. Separate the two by going to the library to study. At the same time, once you get home, do no study. This is what I learnt to do when I had a baby at home and I was at university . I decided baby must come first at home. I would go to study early in the morning and use my time effectively, knowing I could not go home until I was finished with my daily goal or exhausted to study. This worked very well. I got top marks and at home I was relaxed and at leisure. I worked hard to get my home leisure time as early as possible. Baby was waiting. Pretend you have that baby or a JOB to go to, and you will be more efficient. Concentration is a muscle, you will get stronger the more you focus and separate your tasks and environments for doing them.
How do I stop watching TV shows/movies?
If you want to stop, you stop.I know it is easier said than done. So here is what you can do:Write a small note on your homescreen about how watching so many movies causes trouble in your life. Read this everytime you feel the urge to watch a movie.And if at any time you find it too difficult to resist, impulsively switch off your computer/laptop and go for a walk. Let me assure you that during the walk you will appreciate yourself for making that impulsive decision.Use all this a few times and you'll be good!
How can I get rid of the addiction of watching movies and TV series?
Two ways to tackle this addiction: a slow processed and a fairly faster process. (experienced both and hence recommend the slower one)A slow process: for the whole day try studying for 2 hrs.(initially and keep on extending this time) and then watch some movie. Keep telling your inner movie-buff that you'll get a movie only if you let me study i.e. try to strike deals with the devil (seems stupid but works). Gradually you'll let it go!!A faster process: Remove all possible connections to T.V., laptop, computer, or any way possible that allows you to watch something. Just block it all and LISTEN TO RADIO.Well, just like you i also could not control. What i did was the best of the both processes mentioned above and LISTENED TO RADIO, and that did the trick!!!!!!!
