My solution was erasing the game and getting rid of it and choosing not to play it unless I was on holidays or something and had time to burn.

I haven't been addicted to games in a long time, but I recognized what a waste of a life it was spending so much time with absolutely nothing to show for it. Spending time with actual people (not online), exercising, learning something, travelling, helping someone are so much more worth my time.

Many teenagers (and maybe older people too) do not have the maturity to recognize how video games can lay waste to someone's life.
