quit cold turkey, replace it with another less addicting hyperfixation. In time your blood will stop itching. I learned chess when I quit league and while it was good for me, ymmv.
damn all those people watching on twitch surely help the queue timers not take longer every single month. the game definitely isn't losing players year over year for the last 4 years in a row. twitch has nothing to do with player count.
league smashes apex on twitch. apex smashes league in player count and money spent. don't even bring up fornite cause it eclipses both.
watched =/= played but I wouldn't expect a moron on v to understand.
>Go to therapy
Worst advice, taking meds and having your plaints fall on deaf ears is the worst thing you can recommend.
OP, try to do what he says but dont go see a therapist. Allow yourself to new experience, try to learn a new job, language, travel or focus on what is missing in your life.
Dont do drugs, and listen to your parents.
My brother who had depression and went to therapy. They prescribe medication and it made him look like a zombie and sleep everyday.
Since, he stopped and actually spend some time with my family things went very well.
Also they are expensive, frick them.
If you're going to be addicted to a game, at least make it a good one. Game hasn't been good for at least six seasons. It feels like a cheap mobile game now. Their balance team is 100% clinically moronic.
The reason you're addicted to League of Legends, or anything really, is because you have things in your life that are not great, or your life is unsatisfactory. Your addiction is you self-medicating.
Take other addictions: >alcohol
People who drink excessively usually do it to cope with shit in their life >drugs
Again, same thing. Take drugs to get through a work day they hate, or maybe they dislike certain things so drugs makes this bearable >porn
Lack of sex, no intimacy, loneliness etc >videogames
Nothing interesting or stimulating tk do whilst relaxing >food
Feel sad or unhappy, so comfort eat to life mood >coffee/sugar
Most common one. Gives you a high so you don't feel like utter shit in your crappy job
So Legue of Legends isn't the problem, it's more that there's an issue with your life right now you need to address. If your computer broke and you couldn't play, what then? You'd find something else. Maybe TV, or maybe a different game. What if you had no modern technology in you house?
You can quit ANY addiction at ANY time. Even a homeless guy addicted to heroin can stop. But if he doesn't fix his life first he will always feel the need to shoot up because how else is he going to get through the pain and suffering of his existence living under a bridge with nothing to live for? There's no way quitting is easy is you feel terrible when you don't have that crutch.
To overcome, address the thing/s in your life that mak you want to waste hours playing games. What if you had a better life? What if you had the things you want in life? What if the shit in your life was gone? Would you still be playing League of Legends then?
You can quit anytime. But you need to realize your addiction is your coping mechanism. Not cope as in an insult used online like it is now, but genuinely League of Legends is how you cope with shit in your life. So fix your life, and your addiction is magically easy to quit because you don't need it to make you happy.
>Even a homeless guy addicted to heroin can stop.
Not really, but I see your point. Addiction cant be cured but it can be fought, one can slow the damage of the body by stopping it but your neurotransmitters are fricked for life.
It's just not the same type of experience.
I play League for the competitiveness, theorycrafting builds to cheese to high rank, putting other people down who are tryharding. It's dopamine on demand on a 30-minute timer.
If I want to chill and have more time on my hand like 10 or so hours I will play other games.
uninstall the game and use q browser filter to block every shit of legend site
I assume you're a teenager, so I'll suggest growing older
quit cold turkey, replace it with another less addicting hyperfixation. In time your blood will stop itching. I learned chess when I quit league and while it was good for me, ymmv.
nobody under the age of 25 plays league.
>nobody under the age of 25 plays league.
deranged statement
>nobody under the age of 25 plays league.
idiot, zoomers love that shit
the game is quite literally dying in North America. You're so out of touch with the zoomers it's not even funny.
>dude come play this 13 year old game
>yeah the matches only last 30 to 50 minutes
>zoomie where are you going?
so true /b/ro, league is le oldgay game, zoomers definitely don't love league and dedicate their entire zoomer youths to playing it

ask Riot to delete your account
Uninstall, and when you go to reinstall, don't.
I have gigabit internet so installing league takes 30 seconds
meanwhile new accounts literally cost just 5 bucks
>buys a league account
You are a literal homosexual
>Settings
>Uninstall
step 1
uninstall
step 2
don't install it back
it really is that simple
set a timer to only play a certain amount every day
then lower that amount every day
Go to therapy and try to find what you are missing inside of yourself that you are trying to fill with your gaming addiction

>Change account password
>Type some gibberish with your eyes closed
>Uninstall game

>Profit!
just get a job, literally any job will make any competitive game that goes on for more than 15 minutes unplayable

Go to the gym.
Do something ask to sink your time in. Build legos or whatever, collect stuff, play other games.
do something else*
such as?
Are you american?
Just play other games? I’m sure you have a backlog to play through.
It's just not the same type of experience.
