Log on to your account and have your girlfriend change the password for you; unless you can read her mind, or that she's unable to come up with something completely random/cryptic, that should help you a bit.

And delete the game client.

If you can't control yourself despite knowing you have other priorities, then I think you have deeper things that need fixing before you can fix the WoW issue.

I admitted to having an issue when I asked you to help me fight my addiction. If I wasn't addicted then it wouldn't be a problem, right?

And I'm saying WoW isn't the problem, your priorities are. Sit down and try to figure out why x, y, and z should be higher priorities than WoW. Once something is a priority in more than just name then you should have no problem doing it before other things.

By just focusing on WoW as the problem, you're just making it worse by just focusing on WoW.

I am aware that things like education is at the top of the priority list, but that doesn't mean that I know when to quit playing. I guess you could say I'm procrastinating to the extreme.

Then that's a priority in name only, and WoW is your priority in reality. Until you take hold of your education (for example) and make it a central part of your life for real reasons, you're always going to have the problem of doing other things instead of it.

Why do people procrastinate even if it hurts their grades? Because their priorities look something like this: getting a C > playing WoW > getting an A. Until you make getting an A a real priority, you will always try to make WoW come first.

I'm back
I promise to never go back on that promise, in fact
Let's be honest, that last Relapse CD was "ehhhh"
Perhaps I ran them accents into the ground

My first thought as well

~~Parental~~ SELF Control

Fixed.

I had addiction issues when I first started playing. I quit once and only came back when I knew I could keep it under control. No problems since.
I've recently lost friends over Wow, but only because they thought WoW was satanic. It wasn't negatively affecting my work, social, mental, physical life at all. I only dedicated 4 hours each Friday night to raiding, the rest of my week was free for other activities.

I'd go re-unsub and delete the client from your computer again...then go get yourself a whole season of a show or a console game or anything else you can get that you can access anytime and try to get into that until your time expires :)

Also, good luck! I completely understand your issue having internet addiction issues myself and having taken a looong break and only came back when I felt I could handle it...although mine is any and all internet activity for me WoW didn't hook me as badly as many other things (message board usually LOL) on the net.
