I am addicted to reading . I know it sounds kind of crazy , because people usually says being a reader is a good thing and all but no it's not , well I like to read mangas basically of yaoi genre . Well I just can't now , because it first I enjoyed it and enjoyed it very much without thinking of much cuz I know I am just reading that's it , but soon I realise that i can't stop myself like have control on me when I read . Well I am open to all kinds of mangas whether gay /lesbian/psychological and etc . I can't focus on my studies , i procrastinate on my studies , instead of attending my online lectures I would read manga , if I don't read manga my mind would wander here and their and I started imagining stuff and slowly and slowly it's become an habit, I tried to control myself so many times but I always fail in the end , I dunno why but it seems like reading now becomes an escape rather than an hobby , when I feel sad , overwhelmed i would read manga . I tried to stop it control it but I dunno what to do anymore . Like their was one incident where I stopped myslef from reading manga but then I started drawing and I don't know why everyone started calling me artist and all , I like praises but still , i want to study , I tried to use art as my stress relief of things get hard , but I still procrastinate on studies I feel bad and all my parents spending money on my studies and here I am wasting my time on ridiculous things , without manga i started watching porn , drawing and the more I ignored the more I get stress , cuz in the end even without manga in my life I still procrastinate and my brain keeps on blaming me and it *** sucks . I don't know what to do , I have wifi , study table , books , teacher , notebooks a comfy place but yet I don't have control in me . I stopped using social media and I am not using it and I also didn't found myself suffering because of this , but in case of manga I dunno I keep on crawling back to it , i thought about reading novel but then I stopped cuz what if novel became another escape.

I think the fact that you enjoy reading do much is great. Do you ever enjoy reading Psychology? Sociology? Self improvement?
