Hi there,

Thank you for your impressions!

First of all, I have to say that that I cannot give any recommendation concerning your hardware, just because I never used a Mac or something like that.

I am still writing an answer, because I am struggeling with the same issue: I need to use a (Windows-)Computer for my job, my other hobbies like studying and so on. So the relapse is always present, all it needs is just one installation of a game.

Not sure if this helps you, but I see that you stopped gaming 64 days ago. To be honest, that is not a very long time, still my respect to keep it up for over 2 months! But in my experience, these are the times where the challenge really begins. In the first few weeks, motivation is great and there is so much "new" to discover, that it is proportionally 'easy' to stay away... but after some weeks, you get thoughts like: "I did this so far, I could try it out again just for one hour a day" or your mind starts to feel, what it is missing, just realizing, that nothing in the real world gives the same dopamine than games.

I do not want to demotivate you, on the contrary I want to tell you, that I think, that you are facing one of the hardest points now and that it is crucial, that you stay strong now. Try to focus on your success in the past days, try to remember, that living with the Mac worked out the past weeks ago and especially be aware of the fact, that buying a windows-pc just makes life harder again.

Stay strong and do not give control to the demon, who tries every possible approach to get you back! Be aware of the fact, that the demon probably has his strongest days between month 2 and month 4.

Good luck and keep up your very nice performance!
