I think the only way to cure it is to get another obsession. XD

Or just read one serie a day or something... I dunno... I usually have nothing else to do... and if I do then I put it second. lol
(yes... I am not very helpful. XD)

Well...I think there's nothing wrong with complete obsession and feel there's no need to limit yourself. :thumbsup:

Yeah...I think you're asking the wrong forum this question. :sweat:

hmm the way to conquer obsession has gotta be to get sick of it! :panfried:
tho, i've had a manga obsession for about 4 years, and yet, still no issues here. love what you love. enjoy life

Ooh! I have an idea!
Find and read a bunch of crappy manga.  lol
or  I guess you can unplug your internet and burn all of your manga if you're that desperate. XD

Your obsession is incurable...
This kind of obsession will never end.
You're domed to always like and read mangas.
 rft3: :onionquickread: :glintevil:
But if you want to limit your daily reading buy yourself a dog!!
 :yoyocicidog:
BE OBSESSED :hypno: BE OBSESSED :hypno: :hypno:


p.s. I suggested the dog because I'm just so madly in-love with dogs...
    they're my second obsession
    :yoyocicidog: :loveu:

After you've read a busload of manga like me (some hundred... I think), you start weeding out the good from the bad and get really choosy (like me). Right now I'm in serious lack of good manga ;-;

Fancy, if you ever need more good manga to read, just send me a PM, I will PM you a list so long you'll never get through them all. ^_^

lol Obsession is GOOD!
its hard not to be obsessed especially when the ones you're reading are still ongoing.
When I'm done reading all the good ones, I just start reading the not-so-good mangas just because its manga.

If you feel you're obsessed with reading manga to the exclusion of everything else in your life, then there are a couple of things you can do.  One you can make sure to complete homework, household chores and other daily requirements prior to sitting down to read your manga.  Two, set aside specific periods of time throughout the week so that you can interact with family and friends.  Three, limit the number of manga you read each day.  For example, a oneshot and one manga.  You could also make out a daily schedule and fill in how much time each thing you need to accomplish requires and then fill in the blanks with manga reading.  LOL

Well, I' m also addicted to manga but since I'm only able to read those provided by the lovely groups who take the trouble to translate for us, it's really not so time-consuming. Anyway, I only read shoujo, josei, romance so truthfully there aren't enough manga out there to fulfill my obsession!!! Personally I read daily before I go to sleep or during the day when I'm working on my computer (it's like a reward for doing my studying for uni) or after my tutoring lessons (to get rid of the stress). I think the best way is to treat manga reading as a break from whatever else you are doing during the day. It's something I'm always looking forward to relax and actually it replaced another hobby of mine which was watching movies! So all of my free time is devoted to manga!!!! But, I don't allow it to hinder my social life or my work (although sometimes I neglect the house chores :sweat:).I suppose it's easy for me now cause I'm single but when I get a boyfriend again it will become difficult to balance...So my advice is fall in love and you definitely won't think of reading manga all the time!!!

I have no idea...although my attention is probably more a hobby than an obsession  :thinkingalot:  I do read manga in two languages, but I also write a lot of my own fiction and spend plenty of time studying...

Just treat it like any other addiction: entirely deny it's a problem ^_^

...i have the same...when i get my hands on a -complete series- i read till i drop  :runningtears:
but the idea is that if you have something else to do, don't start reading manga, finish your business first then go reading...it works for me  :luckycharm:
