RxPG affects every part of the nervous system, including the pleasure centre of the brain. When doctors ask why I log here, I say:
 RxPG helps in studies and increases concentration.
RxPG helps ME to relax
RxPG addiction develops very rapidly when an individual continues to abuse RxPG by FREQUENTLY
visitng Offbeat forum n
interacting by ppl here n
shouting in shout box...
WORD ASSOCIATION GAME..
RxPG's addictive nature activates the brain’s reward systems.
The promise of reward is very intense, causing the individual to continually crave RxPG and to focus his or her activities around logging to RxPG.
n tht reward is LOVE
The ability of RxPG to strongly activate the brain's reward mechanisms and its ability to chemically alter the normal functioning of these systems is what produces RxPG addiction.
RxPG also reduces a person’s level of consciousness, harming the ability to think or be fully aware of present surroundings ...(mom complains we dont listen to anything whn logged to RxPG )
severe aches in the back, abdomen, and legs (continuous sitting in front of comp )
WEIGHT GAIN
RxPG Withdrawal symptoms include but are not limited to:
irritatability
anger
restlessness
yawning
restless sleep
kicking movements (if power is the reason for not able to login )
insomnia
muscle cramps
nausea vomiting diarrhea
severe sneezing (ppl miss me here na..!!)
increases in body temperature, blood pressure, respiratory rate, and heart rate
RxPG withdrawal symptoms reach peak intensity in 3-6 hours.
Without logging in here withdrawal symptoms runs their course in 5 to 7 days, even though craving for RxPG may continue for months.

Tips for deaddiction!!!
Limited access to the offbeat section may help users get rid of this problem, I suppose.
For instance, every user, esp those who are about to take any exam, should be allowed to spend max of 90 min a day on the offbeat However, exceptions can be made.
What do you guys think about this suggestion?
Anyway, don't worry! Things will be alright once you are into a PG, cos you wont have that much time to come here
But.............

hey nice thread this one  ...m wuz really wanting to share details of my RXPG addiction syndrome with u guys....
not looking for any treatment though...
every RX has its share of adverse effects or sensitisation or ends up with the individual developing tolerance or tachyphylaxis....
In this regard.. i believe RXPG lives upto its name...and much beyond that... 
Especially recommended is the OFFBEAT forum..
It is UNIQUE RX in the way that besides providing much needed relief in beating the PG blues away...the only side effect is the "patient" getting more and more addicted ...Hence the "RXPG addiction syndrome..........
And one thing i can confidently bet upon is that none of u registered on this great site want to register for any De-addiction Therapy.....wotsay??

i am one among the voters who said no. i am spending time on study topics in RXPG; and posting in offbeat when my head starts to burn.
so how can i be called "addicted"? (of course i was a little over involved in my 1st 2/3 days but.... later... it became okay.)
RXPG is not just a chat site... we gain lot of great info thru this site.
So i think the term "Addicted" to RXPG is not appropriate.

Dear Dr. BGM...
i hope u don't mind but i don't think the word addiction is not appropriate.
ADDICTION means to crave for something......n as far as i'm concerned-- i get PULLED to the net(only for this site) whenever i get an ans to some Q asked or have some Q to be asked or else hav some views like this one to be shared ..n whenever i'm logged in i look anxiously for unanswered questions n also hunt for any informations that may help me .....n i get glued to this site as long as time permits or net is open for even the months that i spent with this site were not sufficient enough to go through the loads of information in this site or for that reason various informatns getting added each n everyday. so as long as rxpg keeps rocking( i wish for ever) i ll be addicted to it n for a good cause.
again i'm sure out of the present 33,500 registerd users...there ll be many who don't just visit when they r in need or when they r tired...but may be representing the other side of the same coin.. for every one registering here r surely not so serious n rational n wise not to make mistakes...and surely everyone in this site won't be cracking pg exams right....
for that reason i feel i should also learn somethings from u.
so i personally believe ADDICTION is the right word to describe the feeling n that this particular thread ll surely help many people judiciously benifit from this site with valuable informations as given by u in this thread ...
thanks n bye

Rxpg addiction for me is like that famous ad, I think its for dairy milk........khanewalon ko khana ka bahana chahiye.
So I invariably find a reason to login to rxpg. I login if i study well or if i dont study well. I login if some exam results come or if some notification comes.Though neither i would hav written that exam nor i would be writing the one for which the notification has come.Besides I look for all that important info in the "offbeat" forum
So for just any reason i login to rxpg and tell my self that i had a really "important reason" to be here.
As for overcoming the addiction i am workin on it, one such deaddiction therapy is, I come here when i know i will have to leave in another 20 min for some important work. For instance when its almost dinner time i come over so that i am called in another 15-20min. But i am not really sure its working
