Raven, a belated warm welcome to you, too! 
Blackout? Meilin, you should have studied more --- just like what I would do. Anytime this happens to me, I would grab a big flashlight, grab a good studying book, flop down on the bed and start reading. See? 
<== *manga??*
--------------------------------------
(private conversation) 
Me: Meilin, thanks for sharing the video, though I'm not familiar with that group.
Meilin: You're welcome. So what kind of music do you like? 
Me: I'm more into opera.
Meilin: Err... really?? 
Me: Yes, especially Chinese opera.
Meilin: Eek! reaaaaaaaaaaaally?!? 
Me: Uh huh... don't you just love it, too?
Meilin: Um... okay, I've got to go now! *erupting in laughter*

Anyway... I'm starting to get more busy and busier, hardly have time to read any manga/manhwa these past few days. 
With all this talk about addiction, this reminds me of something I read a while ago about an individual bemoaning of manga withdrawal symptoms. So I'm now asking myself, "Is this possible?" 
I'm not an alcoholic, nor a drug addict. But I really want to know if being a manga addict is just as BAD as alcohol/drug addiction? 
Withdrawal symptoms: 
--Anxiety
Well, I do feel kind of anxious not being able to download, but I know I can always download & read later.
--Irritability
Well, this can be blamed on female monthly cycle or PMS.
--Restlessness
Well, I always feel this way when I can't decide what clothes to wear tomorrow.
--Depression
Well, I can't be depressed if I'm always smiling & laughing, eh?
--Poor concentration
Well, I can never concentrate on TV commercials anyway.
--Headaches
Well, when I study or read too much, I'm bound to have a headache.
--Sweating
Well, when it's hot, I'll sweat.
--Racing heart
Well, when I see any bishie, my heart is always racing.
--Difficulty breathing
Well, when I exercise too much, I do have this symptom.
--Tightness in the chest
Well, when I watch an emotional movie, I do feel this way.
--Tremor
Well, a scary movie will do it.
--Nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea
Well, a bad sandwich / contaminated food will cause all these.
--Palpitations
Well, talking to a REAL bishie will definitely do this to me.
So, what's the verdict? In my case, there are NO real withdrawal symptoms. 
I'm basically wholesome & healthy! 
Except...
Except?
Hmmm... How come I can't see myself properly in the mirror. 
*frantically shouting*
MOMMY! When was the last time I got my eyes checked?!?
