Well, I don't remember the sequence of things (you probably have this data) but it is possible that my high frequency posting ended when I took a hiatus because I was attacked by a particularly viscious and disruptive poster. But I also seem to recall coming to a point, completely separate from that episode, of feeling like I was addicted and overdoing it. I was checking in many times a day, and hitting the reset button a lot, and checking for new posts to read, and responded to so many. I felt connected to the board and to the other participants and wanted the contact all the time. As this was happening, I was aware of it, but had a hard time stopping. But then I just realized it was not healthy for me, so I pulled back.
