I am a middle school student,and I am addicted to OSU when I meet this game maybe two weeks ago and I find this game is so amazing and it effects my studying.It 's a really serious problem because now I am stressed about my score:I got all A last year but I think I 'll get B or C this time.But it is too hard for me to keep away from OSU eventhough I know how serious it is.Can somebody give me some advice ?

if you keep calling it OSU instead of osu!, the problem will resolve itself.

on a more serious note, if you don't care enough about your grades, you will either fail the tests, or the exams, or half-ass the tasks you've been assigned to. on the contrary, if you do, no possible distraction can completely stop you from studying.

in other words, poor grades will be only a symptom of your lack of interest with respect to classes.

I would first start by just forcing yourself off playing, if that isn't helping, contacting osu support and locking your account till exams are over would also work.

i should do that exams are actually coming close too

OSU and osu! isn't the same word.
OSU is an Oklahoma State University.
osu! is a game created by Dean Gerbert.
Don't forget this XD

Also force yourself to NOT worry about your score. Every pro say that they just don't care about it and play this game for fun. Don't take the game too seriously.

In fact , it's a really serious stress for the students in China.
Just think about 9.7 million students enter the exam and just 70% of them can enter the universitys,also a lot of universitys are just like rubbish!It's about 20% students can enter a normal university(not a rubbish university)

I doubt you would really want to, but for the sake of your grades, maybe it's best you uninstall osu! for a bit. This game can be very addicting for some people.

Then break mouse and keyboard, also if you write it as OSU you will get cursed by addiction... You need to say osu! osu! osu! While infront of the restroom mirror then think why am I doing this. And think well and balance your studies and game!
Examine
Good luck on your studies!

Here's my advice.
I mean it's great if you enjoy the game. I was in middle school when I discovered osu!.
just dont play to the point where your hand hurts. I did that and now I possibly have carpal tunnel.
Do play, BUT TAKE FREQUENT BREAKS. And school is first.

I'm also at the point of preparing for a college admission test. To deal with osu addiction I just put a lot of books at my desk to study with, but I sometimes get a bit distracted and open some social media

I read somewhere that you can't keep your attention span for too long. I'd suggest having a cycle where you study for 50 minutes and then take a coffee break in the next 10 minutes.

Having a separate space for you to study on is also pretty good so the environment of playing and studying don't get mixed up. I took this idea from people who works at home and usually have a separate room for working

my mom used to be "addicted" to candy crush (her words, not mine) and she reached level 1000 or something huge like that. she told me that deleting the game from her phone fixed her problem.
