Please help me guys, I have an addiction that's similar to crack and coke and I keep spending my money and time with it. I don't know if there's a rehab to go to but if there is I'm not brave enough to go into it, and it's too expensive is there is one. :(

What are my options? I have never been so addicted to anything in my life and I think it's really affecting my social life and putting a real strain on me physically. I can't get up in the morning knowing I'm going to do it and I can't go a day without it. Can someone please tell me how I can stop this addiction of buying domains? I mean honestly I'm spending about over a thousand dollars per month and sometimes I just get carried away with it. I'm losing money and friends to this addiction.

Please help me. :(

I got over my addiction when I sold every one of my names off one at a time at $.50. I regret it as I sold some premium domains for little to nothing, but it got me over my addiction.

You could continue buying them, but putting them under my name. That should alleviate you from your suffering. :]

"Web Developement Addiction"

That is a popular cure, and also changes the direction of the money flow. Plus it changes peoples comments from "Why do you own that" to, "WOW, you really do own that."

There are two kinds of domain names worth investing in, the ones that go up in value, and then the ones that go up in value while paying monthly revenues. Once you get the second type, you never go back to the first.

"Web Developement Addiction" turns the first kind into the second kind.

Yes web development addiction would really cure it. The web development addiction will take a lot out of you that you will not have any more itch to go back to this addiction.

The itching is the worst part. It's like every time I do it I get a high...when I don't I go through withdraw! D-:

Is this supposed to be a joke or are you being serious? I agree with some of the others, if you're not making a profit buying/selling domains then you should develop the domains you have.

Do it as a business. Buy it then sell it so that you can make use of that addiction. :)

List Them

List the domains that you have bought over the last 6 months. We could then tell you if you have an addiction or are just seizing on great opportunities.

I love buying domains too. I guess like you I am a domain shopaholic. But you're in stage 3 so that makes a big difference. :p

I agree with them - stop buying for now and hire good developers or you could develop some of your domains yourself. There's no hurry to become a pro. Just have fun as you learn. Once you start, you'll find it hard to stop. You can be addicted to it, but you'll realize it's more profitable than the first one - unless those domains are really worth millions. :)

Don't worry, bro

I can feel you. Don't worry. I got one method here: why not register the domain in stead of buying it. It is comparatively cheap and it is really a good invest! :) Good luck to you, bro~

Buy every domain you can think of related to domain registration addiction. Better yet, reg DomainAddictionForum.com, buy a script, and build a site on a topic you know intimately!

And remember, it's only Binge Domaining if you stop.

:hehe:
