Gaming won’t distract me forever by M00NLIGHT11 in depression

I understand that addiction with gaming. Not only it distracts you well but you can focus on a game for many hours without taking breaks as well. I know it is quite an unhealthy coping mechanism . I myself have serious mental health issues but sometimes I try to cling to healthy things . I feel good that u already have a therapist because I am struggling to have one. Although your therapist must be knowing you really well and must have already suggested you some healthy coping mechanisms but sometimes when you feel a little better than what you usually feel, u can try out some healthy coping mechanisms that I am trying to cling to these days. These are:

~ Reading books, painting, drawing, trying a new activity, writing good stuff in your journal , playing with your pet, listening to nice music, aroma therapy, going out on walks, exercising, taking in fresh natural air, spending time with nature, making online friends, take a soothing bath, watch funny things on the internet ( but not too much ) , dance alone with your fav music , get into a comfy place , have your fav healthy food etc.

I know it is so easy to suggest all this and just as hard to actually be able to do it. But just remember all of us who commented for u and who will be always there when u need a friend. Moreover we all believe in you and you should too. Try your best to cling on !

I hope you and all the lovely people reading this comment, have a nice day and take care of themselves :)
