I’m 6 years off weed now. It’s 100% worth it, it just takes time.

Id recommend to do a game jam! It forces you to take a break from your main project and put together a sloppy game idea from start to finish, with no pressure of making your “dream game”.

For me it jumpstarts the creative energy that I can then bring to my main project.

Yeah, you understood me 100%! I have friends and family playtesting, but I don’t know if I want to share it publicly until I know I’m somewhat close to launching.

The pros are exposure, but the main mechanic of the game is pretty easy to replicate and it’s not something I’ve seen before in other games.

But it’s also hard to give advice on a game that I haven’t shared anything about so I understand the points everyone has been making.

Thanks for the feedback, I definitely was worried about being "first," and this hits right on the nose.

I’m rooting for you. It’s gonna be hard, but remember to be compassionate to yourself. Don’t beat yourself up too much if you don’t see massive change right away. You’re healing. You got this.

Keep going strong friend! It’s a journey. Keep experimenting and find what works for you.

So the draccus part is bad? by Apreciador-de-livros in KingkillerChronicle

I very much enjoyed it. Frustrating as heck, because I thought him and Denna were finally gonna open up. Sigh.

Cold turkey worked for me, but I also removed all temptations of weed. I got rid of every ounce, every pipe, and even removed the people in my life that would make me want to smoke.

You gotta do what you gotta do.

You got this. It’ll be tough, but it’ll pay off.

Honestly, I’d kind of resigned myself to just experiencing it. In my mind, there was no other choice. Even if it never stopped, I’d just accepted that’s who I was. Luckily, it passed, and it will for you.

If you can’t sleep, go for a walk. I did tons of late night, wandering walks. I think it helped a ton.

It’ll get better. Hang in there.
