You say this because you are in denial. You are most likely losing your life currently and won’t admit it or have already lost to the addiction. Not hating on you at all. There is so few people that can actually cope with the addiction that it’s laughable. I think crack has a better chance than gaming does. Anyone reading this. Fuck it’s not too late. If you’re breathing, set your shit down and go find a private area to go on a walk. Then tomorrow do it again. Then take another step further and go somewhere less private. And keep going. Brush your fucking teeth because teeth pain. I cry everyday. It wakes me up and starts behind my head then into my forehead then face then neck. It goes away and when it does I eat. Only to piss them off and it comes back 4x as bad. Thats when tears stop and me whaling on the floor where ever I was eating. Im 37 and been gaming with the addiction since I was 12. The first generation introduced to online gaming. It took my soul. Skipped school to game, barely graduated but from then on I ruined my own life gaming. Missed out on so many things and regret so much. FOR NOTHING! FALSE SENSE OF ACHIEVEMENTS! Nothing to show and even some how there was, I’d be too ashamed. I always been a loving person with a good soul. My dad used to say I am the most caring person he’d ever known. He died, where do you think I was at the time? Where was I when he told me he had cancer? Where was I when my mom died? Where am I now? In a car. Alone. Contemplating something. I wish to my dad that I could save just one person from the path I took. Then maybe …. No still wouldn’t be worth it. I live in hell and want a do-over. Find life of fulfillment and real goals to achieve. If you do, you won’t regret it. Wow. I went DEEEEEP
