Anybody else see boards, pieces and moves when lay on the bed to sleep?
It's normal to see after images when you close your eyes at night, of whatever you've spent a long time looking at during the previous day. A long time ago, I read what causes it, but I can't remember it well enough to tell about it.
I don't want help, I wanna be an addict for the rest of my life.

Hello, my name is Duke and I'm a chess addict.
chess like love is addicted to any age. wasn't it Fhlor who said this ?
Hello, my name is Dimitrije Mandić, and I'm a chess addict. I don't play correspondence games anymore (since that kind of analysis was WAY too heavy a burden for my brain, and it also Tetris effect-ed me oh so mercilessly), but I can't stop playing 15(occasionally 20 or 10)-minute games on various online servers. If I do take a break from it, then I usually start unwinding some homemade engineless opening analysis in my head, and continue by inserting moves in any chess software, sometimes spending hours just analyzing, often only to briefly check it with a kibitzing engine like Fritz 6 and realize that somewhere I've made a gaping oversight that refutes my entire work! This can be particularly devastating, as it doesn't even help me play better, not in any single way. Everything stirs out of control. It seems like I'll have to keep playing a few games every night to avoid the obvious abstinence which is followed by self-destructing timewasting on hopeless delusional dreams. But playing a few games every night isn't a big deal, I guess... if you're NOT a student of music who plays violin or any other musical instrument that requires intense focused and dedicated classical training! And being much more an audial than a visual type when it comes to memory, I'm certain that my musical talent is predominant, and, in fact, it's the greatest one I possess! That should be nurtured without anything getting in the way of my mental or physical progress. But I also love math (which I haven't had since elementary), and consider chess to be a blissfully wonderful blend of art and logic, if not the best one. If only it weren't for the addiction, maybe I'd take up chess later in my life, when I could concentrate my efforts on it more efficiently. Every advice will be appreciated. Thank you all in advance.
I still SUCK TOO HARD!!!!!!!
