Hello there! My name is Ken, I am a 17 year-old french student currently studying in Vietnam. I believe I might have an addictive personnality, it's causing me a lot of trouble because I get distracted easily by the internet and (to a lesser extent) video games while on my computer and since most of my homework is done on the computer it makes even harder for me to avoid this addiction and focus on my studies, the worst part is that I have a bachelor test this year but I can't seem to focus on my homeworks.

I tried telling my parents but they refuse to believe me. This hasn't only affected my studies but has also affected my life a lot on a daily basis creating a cycle of issues: I refuse to go outside, to do any physical exercise, to socialise, to sleep at a normal rate (from 2 am to 6 am on multiple occasions) and it's also causing me to become stressed and exauhsted in class which in turn is also affecting my grades and the way I'm socializing with my friends (I usually keep to myself, and when there is too many people I tend to stress out a lot, probably a social anxiety disorder, but that's another issue).

I'm trying my best to improve on this but I just can't since I get distracted way too easily and lose all notion of time or my surroundings when the addiction kicks in. It's also having an effect on my thinking where from times to times I would just downright get lost in my own thoughts while thinking just about anything and again lose notion of time. This issue has also affected my self-esteem, I lose more and more hope that I will ever be able to pass the test and as result I feel less and less motivated to put any effort into it as well, but the problem is that this test is extremely important as well. Am I really in trouble? Or am I just overreacting too much like my parents are saying. If not then is there anyways to remedy this?

Thanks in advance, :)
Ken
