Ok I admit it - Now what do I do? 

Well - I do not believe there is a program for us Squids yet - I am not sure Dr. Drew is gonna take any of us on or A&E's Intervention Show will not branch out just yet for Squidoo Addiction.
So unless you want to blow up your computer or have your internet connection disconnected we are just gonna have to support each other for now.
So knowing you are an addict and so are the others who have posted their lenses - just click on some and show your support knowing they too have the same problem. For now that is all we can do. So stayed tuned and book mark this page - add yourself to my Fan Club and when there is a program for us available - I am sure to have it right here.

What if you don't want to be cured? What if you are enjoying yourself immensely? So what if the dishes don't get done.

Great lens. I gave it 5 stars for now. But if this lens moves ahead of one of my lens in lensrank - all bets are off ;-) And I'll be checking, frequently if not all the time, I'll know. Glad I don't have this addiction you are talking about.
