It sure is hard to walk away from the Net when your living and income depends on being on top of it. I think the time limitations, accountability to yourself via keeping a journal of your hours in the Net is a great approach. Sitting down with yourself to see what else could I be doing with my time that can be more productive, is helpful as well. Too many of my tween/teen patients and their parents do not realize how much time they spend on the net and do not see the connection that it can become a major stress reliever and create stress as well. When parents try to limit net, FBing, IMing, cell phone texting, not to punish, but to help, a tween/teens reaction if way too strong sends the message to the parent that OH NO we have a problem here. Love your tips as well. Writing my book proposal and making headway.
