Same here, though I've been out a fair while longer (since before Pandaria,
with a month to test play the expansion, I don't think I'll be back for the
next one). While I had repeatedly failed to "play reasonably", going cold
turkey was surprisingly easy without any withdrawal symptoms. I guess by
playing a little I was always aware what I didn't get around to do, so I
kept playing more and more trying to catch up, being away from it there was
no need to catch up :-)

I have since spent a bit of playing Diablo 3 and Starcraft 2, both of which
I enjoy a lot and I appreciate them having solo modes that are a lot of fun
and easily interruptible (remember Burt asking for the Pause button in WoW?)
which makes it much more compatible with family needs while I play. Plus,
playing solo, I don't constantly see what others achieve, feeling the need
to satisfy my completionist side. I've had much more success playing a
little here and there with those two games, while still having a great time
when doing so.

I've dabbled at Hearthstone during the Beta but after a short while became
rather bored of it, I haven't fired it up in several months now.

Cheers
