You should also consider how you're using your practice time. If you are practicing effectively, 1 - 2 hours a day really should be enough to allow decent growth in your playing.

IMO, aging curmudgeon that I am, if you're now spending more than 1 - 2 hours a day on video games, you should probably try SunnyDaze's advice about how to cut down, even if you don't devote all the free the time you gain from less video time to practicing clarinet. Between video games and practicing, do you spend time on other important things - like regular exercise? How are your grades at school (do you spend enough time on school work to keep them up)?
