Is there a Help Group for Answers Addicts? ;o)?
I've managed to spend 5 years on Flickr (much of it in the Help Forum) without such addiction, but within 4 months here I'm totally hooked. It's the variety of questions and the chance to research so extensively.
Is there a Help Group for Answers Addicts - an AA for the net? ;o)
Is it actually against the law (most addictions are) ;o)
Or am I, despite all the available evidence, normal? ;o(
Please help! ;o)
I *am* being slightly facetious in asking this question, and I'll counter the Dave Gilmour quote with "I have become comfortably numb" ;o)

No I think Yahoo shuts them down as soon as they get started, this is a Dave Gilmour song, I think it's about Yahoo Answers...
There's no way out of here
When you come in
You're in for good
There was no promise made
The part you played
The chance you took
There are no boundaries set
The time and yet
You waste it still
So it slips through your hands
Like grains of sand
You watch it go
There's no time to be lost
You'll pay the cost
So get it right
There's no way out of here
When you come in
You're in for good
There never was there an answer
There an answer
Not without listening
Without seeing

I don't believe there's a support group at this time, but lately I see so many questions similar to yours, that it can only be a matter of time before someone starts one.

Yes, you are normal like many of us.
Try to break the habit by gradually reduce number hours on the site.
Note: it worked for me (Answers, Facebook).
