small things helped me. Going to the gym forcing myself to socialise and make memories as gaming just blurs all into one. Getting a gf helped. I used to ignore her for hours when I played day z. Also helps that all the games out are dead now and all my friends have moved on also.
Done the same thing with my gf too man that’s what eye mean gaming can be very damaging when taking to seriously or to the extreme. But it’s good you have progressed from that stage. Yes it helps that games are dead and less people are on and that you have a gf aswell but a question you have to ask yourself. Do you play less pretty much because of them reasons or actually you just not holding any value to gaming anymore. Yes there’s a reason to everything but what eye mean is if all them factors weren’t at play would you still not play. If not then that is you who has done it. Yes you can say these things helped but it’s you who has done it. Thats what an “addiction” is it’s down to the mentality it’s within the mind. Eye used this analogy in the other comment don’t have the mindset of it’s an “addiction” like eye said it’s all within the mind. But the analogy is Treat it as your the author who’s writing a story and that in other words is you who has the power to chose the way your life goes it’s all a choice. So the stronger the reason for stopping the stronger the resistance of wanting that feeling aka feeding that “addiction”. So if the reason to stop is coming from you it will be stronger than an external factor because the “addiction” is within your own mind no one else’s. Hopefully this makes sense just something eye thought when reading.
Going to have to follow your journey, I've wasted soo much time gaming, and still find myself doing it, And I feel bad in the early hours of the morning that i've wasted all day on it, But then I still do it again! just feels like everyone else is living normal life and i'm not :(
Ok don’t follow me take what you need that you think can help you. We yes may have the same or similar situation but we are different people with different lives. So First you have to ask yourself what is a “normal” life and is that really what you want to live we all have different lives at the end of the day. Like eye said in the video how habbits work in my opinion is that you have to replace a bad habit with a good one. Or you’ll will just have a big gap of not doing anything and just play again. So find something you have a connection with and actually like other then gaming. Then that will naturally cut out the hours of gaming without even having to think about it because you actually like what you’re doing. You also have to be 100% honest it’s a choice to continue the “addiction”. We chose to still play and yes there’s reason why we like to still play but it all falls back on us and we have the choice. You have to treat it less like an “addiction” and more like a story and you’re the author who can write the story. So in other words you are the person with the power to make progress with this “addiction” that you have and then if it’s your goal to also quit it completely. It’s all down to your mind you have to realise that only you can do it. Hope this helped.
