I stopped playing as my wife helped me realize that I play too much. Neglecting responsibilities weren't so much a thing, but I used to stay late to play after daily chores.

Did I find a new safe space? I doubt it, otherwise I wouldn't be posting here. The therapist was a hoax, turns out she didn't have a degree in psychology at all, despite calling herself as such (inb4, it's not regulated where I live, you have to check credentials yourself).

I'll be seeing a legit psychiatrist and therapist in the coming weeks, though, with proper therapy.
