In my third year of university, what should I do if I become addicted to writing questions to the point of becoming a little bit psychotic? By Anonymous | Published on December 18, 2024

I am a junior student majoring in foreign languages. Since about this summer, I have found myself addicted to writing questions. I personally really like my major. Before the summer vacation, I took three very difficult and challenging exams, and I passed them all with flying colors and achieved excellent results. This gave me a lot of encouragement and made me love learning even more. I prepared for the next exams with all my heart, and as a result, I found that I have now become a bit pathological. I indulge in writing questions every day, and I find that I love writing questions. You may think this is fake, but I swear it is absolutely true. I just really like writing questions, and there is absolutely no feeling of compulsion. I love it from the bottom of my heart. I just feel very happy when I write questions, and I like the feeling of using my brain. Later, it developed to the point where I would not eat or sleep, and I would not communicate with anyone, because I think loving to write questions is a good habit. Gradually, I feel that everything except writing questions is useless, and it is just wasting time that I could be spending writing questions. Besides writing questions, I don't have many other hobbies. Because of this, I have lost about 10 pounds. I was already very thin, and now I am almost skin and bones. My family also doesn't understand me very well. They think I have gone crazy

Good day. I am Gu Yi. I am modest and self-effacing, and I strive for consistency.

The gratification and sense of fulfillment derived from the completion of the exercises.

The sentiment you articulated in your description, namely the feeling of being wholly engaged and deriving enjoyment from it, is indeed genuine. At one point in my own experience, I was in a similar position. I would become fully engaged and experience a pronounced sense of accomplishment. I derived a profound sense of satisfaction upon completion of the questions and verification of all the answers.

I must concede that I am unable to match your tenacity and self-challenge. I have, however, retained an affinity for acquiring new knowledge, although I recognise that my enthusiasm and level of commitment are not as robust as they once were. I admire your ability to integrate theory with practice and hope that we can emulate this approach.

The emotional responses elicited by the completion of exercises must be subjected to analysis and reflection; otherwise, they may manifest as the concerns you have articulated. In the past, the pursuit of academic excellence drove the completion of exercises. Now, it is essential to cultivate the ability to think critically and to integrate theoretical knowledge with practical application.

It is recommended that the following advice be considered:

The cognitive abilities and meticulous attention to detail acquired through problem-solving can be applied to approximately half of one's life and half of one's academic pursuits. It is beneficial to derive pleasure from the diverse gratifications that problem-solving offers and to embrace the sense of accomplishment that life provides.

It is important to distinguish between one's academic pursuits and one's personal life. While these two realms are intertwined, it is challenging to fully segregate them. Ultimately, one might view life as a vast repository of knowledge, with no definitive answer to any given question.

It is my hope that the questioner will be able to adjust his state of mind in order to learn and live happily together.

As a linguistics major, I have learned that effective communication is essential for establishing connections with others. This enables the transfer of knowledge and the ultimate meaning of learning, which is to influence and impact others.

Sincerely,

My child, I give you a hug. I know that parents who have tried so hard to get their children to study will be envious and feel so much sympathy for you when they see your situation. It is rare to find a child who is already extremely good at something and who works so hard at it that they even enjoy doing it.

You deserve praise.

You seem to be overreacting a bit. The joy of success has stimulated you, and the sense of achievement that comes from hard work has given you a profound sense of pleasure. You particularly like the feeling of solving problems, and it's gotten out of control. It's caused some changes in your outlook. You're getting so much pleasure from solving problems that you've ignored other things in life, and your health is suffering as a result.

My child, everything is better in moderation. You may love it, but if it affects your physical health, it's pathological.

You need to make adjustments in a timely manner. From the moment you came to the platform to ask for help, I could see your determination to change. Let's try these methods and I am confident they will help you.

1. Physical isolation means deliberately refraining from doing problems, going shopping, watching movies, enjoying food, etc. for a period of time. It is important to use your willpower to restrain the urge to write problems, put down the problems and the pen, and walk out of the room, even if you are reluctant. You can go on a short trip with your parents to change the environment, see things that you usually don't pay attention to or don't see, and distract your attention.

2. Work is for life. If your health is affected, you will not be able to enjoy the happiness that writing questions brings you in the long run. To enjoy this happiness for a long time, you need to have good health. This means you can exercise moderately and change your living habits.

3. Get help from a counselor. If you can't force yourself to physically isolate yourself or divert your attention, you need professional help to coordinate your life with professional methods.

You will see a big improvement after a period of time.

My child, you must change this situation as soon as possible. Otherwise, the psychological anxiety caused by extreme weight loss will form a vicious circle, which is not good. You can do this.

Hello, classmate! I'm envious and worried after reading your description. You love to learn and do so consciously and spontaneously, which is rare. You may feel that you're overreacting and confused. But as the saying goes, "You can't be successful without being crazy about it." It's difficult to be deep in many things without reaching that crazy state. This is especially true of languages, which require a lot of practice. Even people with a talent for languages will not be able to achieve anything in this field without long-term, intensive study. We envy the interpreters who are familiar with our country's leaders. Which one of them has not gone through intense training to achieve success?

First, be proud that you found a career you love at a young age. Many people never find what they love. Be proud of your strong willpower, which you have trained day after day. It's driven by your inner passion.

Why do you like writing or brushing questions alone if you like your foreign language major? Maybe it's because you've passed three difficult exams.

There are many ways to love your major.

Learning a language is about using it. This can be in exams, writing questions, internships, translation work, or teaching. We can all help our profession to reach new heights. If you love your profession, you can use some of the time you spend on questions to study, practice, and improve your profession. This can help you to communicate better with others. You can also observe how people communicate with each other.

When learning a language, we need to focus on the language itself and the non-linguistic part. This can't be learned from books. It involves observation and practice. When switching between languages, we need to understand the linguistic and non-linguistic communication of native and foreign speakers. This is gained through practice and communication with others.

Set aside time to improve other skills. This will help you in your major and help you make connections with others. You can do this through social practice, part-time jobs, internships, chatting with family and classmates, and other methods.

Come on! Outstanding people!

Deal with misunderstandings and move towards your goals!

Alana Miller A teacher's love for students is a warm embrace that makes learning a pleasant experience.

I can totally relate to your passion for your studies. It's amazing how much joy you find in crafting questions; it really shows dedication. But it sounds like this habit has taken over more than you might have intended. Maybe it's time to strike a balance, find a way to enjoy your major without letting it consume every aspect of your life.

Flora Miller Time is a language that everyone understands, yet few master.

It's fantastic that you're so driven and love what you do. However, I'm concerned about the toll it's taking on your health. Have you considered setting aside specific times for writing questions and other activities? That way, you can still indulge in your favorite activity while also taking care of yourself.

Julius Miller Great works are performed not by strength but by perseverance.

Your enthusiasm for writing questions is truly inspiring. Yet, hearing that you've lost weight and are neglecting basic needs like eating and sleeping is worrying. Perhaps talking to a counselor could help you find a healthier balance between your academic pursuits and personal wellbeing.

Dusty Miller Learning is a treasure that will follow its owner everywhere.

It's wonderful that you've found something you're passionate about. But it seems like this interest has spiraled into an obsession that's affecting your health and relationships. Have you thought about joining clubs or groups related to your field? It could be a way to share your love for language while also connecting with others.

Luis Miller We grow as we learn to take responsibility for our lives.

I admire your commitment to your studies and the joy you get from creating questions. However, it's crucial not to let one activity overshadow everything else. Maybe you could try diversifying your interests or hobbies. This could help maintain your passion for writing questions without it becoming allconsuming.
