Part 3 of 3: Distracting Yourself with Other Things
1.Admitting you have a problem The first step to defeating anime addiction is to admit you have a problem. You lie at 10:00 watching your Narutos or your Dragon Balls and there's something important you have to do tomorrow. Once you admit to having a problem, you can begin to develop as a person. Go outside, play with your dog.

Many anime stories have negative themes, including hatred, pain, jealousy, resentment, sadness, some pictures and even sexual abuse and nudity.
Just keep re-watching episodes until you get bored of the anime.
