1) First off understand what blogging does to your body.
Blogging is extremely taxing on your body. Especially because folks like me take the laptop into the bathroom and often spend hours staring at the screen. It can be taxing on your mind, your soul, your eyes, and well your ego. You can forget that reality exists outside the blog world. If you are running 20 or more sites like some of Darren Rowse’s visitors you could be at it a long time at time just updating every single one of those quality sites. Your hands could ache from typing for hours, and well for folks like Scrivs who seemingly download “music” in between each blog post. Blogging can just seek to take a toll on the bodily fluids. The result basically is nausea, twitchy nerves, unpleasantness, pessimism, terrible brain pain, and a temporary lack of concern for fellow homosapiens. One of my symptoms is snarkiness which can be a good thing if you run a site like this. But if you run a bridal site it can be detrimental to your quality.

2) Be Prepared
Don’t blog on an empty stomach it can result in poor thinking, and dry orifices. Which will always result in poor post quality. Hydrate your body before you start blogging. If you don’t you will become dehydrated. Remaining hydrated is the number one important thing in preventing a blogover. Mountain Dew does not count as hydration. Drink H20. It’s also wise to have some non-alcoholic eye drops on hand. Remeber to look away from the monitor every few minutes.

3) Know what to do while your blogging.
Like we already said look away from your screen every 5-6 minutes. Your eyes will thank you in the morning. Then eat often, and drink plenty of fluid. You don’t realize how fast the time goes by until you are dehydrated and your eyes are sore. Don’t be afraid to put some music on. I prefer Barry White. You can pick your favorite artist. It doesn’t really matter anyhow. Once you get into blogging we all know you turn into a zombie. Choose your sites with care. You don’t want a lot of flashing images, or boring websites. Alternate snarky content, with boring content. It will keep you awake and fresh with thoughts. Consume less than 100 feeds an hour. If you don’t manage the amount of feeds your consuming you are going to have a sore cranium the next day and you won’t have learned a darn thing. Not like we care. We know everything. We hold all the secrets. When you get done—- take a good long pee. It will help dump all the Mountain Dews and water, and the bullshit info that is on most blogging sites. In one orifice out the other. Never ever take analgesics while you are blogging it could create a permanent state of bloggers block that not even Darren Rowse could get rid of. Trust me you will thank me the next day.

4) Survive the day after.
See a doctor IMMEDIATELY if you are experiencing tremors, stomach pain, or if you see blood in your already read feeds. Or if you begin experiencing Lorem Ipsum Post Disorder Dr. Darren Rowse could help overcome some of these symptoms as could Dr. Steve Rubel. Stay hydrated, feed on only small lightweight non serious blogs. Don’t check your email or respond to any of your comments. These could drag you back into a never ending cycle that many blogoholics suffer from.

5)Our secret cure to any blogover.
Do post delays. Write up a few posts like this one. And set it for publication a day after your expected blogover. Then leave the computer alone. Don’t turn it on. Don’t think about. Don’t check your email. Don’t think about your email. Take a long nap, read a book, and take a walk in the park. Spend time with your family again, and go talk to the neighbors. All things you neglect while you are experiencing another slip back into blogaholism. Remember Professional Blogging is supposed to free you up to spend more time with your family. Not ruin your family.
