Is there hope from becoming struck with television addiction? Yes, start here.
Keep a record of how much TV you watch and when you watch. Do this for one week.
List all the other fun activities you can do at home instead of watching TV. Place your list on your refrigerator so you can check this list BEFORE you turn on the TV. Consider fun things to do as a family, household projects you’d like to complete, outside activities, reading, exercise, etc.
Set a limit for how much TV you will watch in one week. Record your time and stick to your commitment.
Commit to exercising whenever you watch TV, such as walking on a treadmill, riding a stationary bike, etc.
Consider removing your TV for a set period of time. You might find yourself talking to your family again instead of watching the TV so much.
