We’ve all been there. Maybe Netflix comes out with an entire season of House of Cards or maybe you just discovered the magic of Bob’s Burgers. Whatever your Netflix vice is, you probably binge watched it over the weekend. It’s now probably Sunday night and you’re reading this article as a desperate attempt to acclimate yourself back into the real world. Never fear, we’ve got just the thing!

MONDAY: Tend to Your Hierarchy of Needs

Drink some water to recover from all those chips and popcorn you ate in bed. Take a long, hot shower, washing behind the ears. Feed yourself some substantial food that has actual nutritional value. comb your hair and put on real pants (no boxers please). Do whatever you need to do to feel like a human being once again.

TUESDAY: Embrace Your Inner Fangirl

Get yourself on Tumblr, Youtube, Reddit, or just plain old Google and get ready to search and obsess. Find edited photographs, backstage interviews, plot theories, fan fiction, drinking games — you name it! Give in to that craving and fangirl it up!

WEDNESDAY: Take a Break

I hope you got an obsession-fix Tuesday because you’re about to take a break. You know what they say, you know you’re addicted when you can’t stop! So test the waters, just try to go a day without. And yes, that means without googling or watching anything to do with the show. Instead of examining the previous sentence for loopholes, try to actually cut yourself off. Go be a people person human thing. You may be surprised at the results.

THURSDAY: Game Time

For those of you over 21, remember those drinking games I mentioned before? Trust me, there’s a drinking game out there for EVERY show. In fact, there’re hundreds for popular shows like Gossip Girl or Game of Thrones. Get some pals together and get cracking. Why is this my advice? Drinking games are enjoyable with other human creatures, and you need all the social interaction you can get because this Friday….

FRIDAY: Rinse and Repeat

Have more of the show to watch? Want to re-watch? Or, dare we say it, ready to obsess over another TV show? Of course you are, so let’s not waste time and spend all day Friday acting like you’re not going to binge-watch Suits all weekend. Instead, take the time to make the experience more enjoyable for you! Stock up on Ben & Jerry’s, soap, and (depending on the show) tissues and get ready to do it all again!
