I only joined MN a few weeks ago. I am quite opinionated as some of you would have seen. And I think in some posts have probably not come across too well although I do consider myself a decent person. But I have become so obsessed with all the various threads and chit chat that I am spending at least five or more hours a night on here and going to bed really late. Hence struggling at work the next day through tiredness. I am a single mum. My ds 13 goes to his dads twice a week. When I am chit chatting on here my son is either watching tv, reading, doing homework etc. We do communicate all night between me typing away.........is this normal or am I a saddo? 
Were any of you like this at first and then the novelty wears off......have to go to bed now so will check any answers tomorrow.
