    I used to be a level 7 just last year, I can say I am now in the middleground between level 2 and 3. I used to spend about 14+ hours a day playing games, cause I am in online college, and the only reason I used to be like this was due to online "friends". When i cut all ties with them in December, that was the best decision for me ever. I stopped playing games all day, started doing my own hobbies more, studying more, got a job in my career, went from 205 lbs to 147 lbs, am not depressed or suicidal anymore. While sad to say all my ex friends are still stuck at level 6 and 7 and all are unhappy. Don't let gaming take over, and delete discord is what I have learned, almost everyone on there is a time waster, and will just make you fall right back into gaming. Go make some irl friends and go out with them and do something.

    When I was in middle school, I had a friend who was level 6. He would spend every waking hour playing video games. Even when we were on FaceTime, he would ignore me in favor of whatever game he was playing.
    Eventually, I cut contact with him because he ghosted me in favor of playing video games. (He never answered my texts, and whenever I tried to call him, he’d tell me he was busy playing TF2 and would talk to me later, then hang up.)
    I hope he straightened out his life because he was on his way to level 7. He even had a shirt that said, “I must go. Video games need me!” When I could actually talk to him (usually when we played a multiplayer co-op game), he was a kind, creative, and funny kid. I hope he didn’t completely succumb to his addiction.

    I’m quite obsessed with my game, but half of it was to have fun in the game. The other half was to have fun with my friends. Even if it was a fighting game, sometimes me and my friends would just sit back and talk about stuff. I will not lie, I have gotten mad sometimes/rage quitted, but I don’t really do that much anymore.
    And funnily enough, I was the talk of the friend group because I was bad. I sucked ass at Fortnite, yet it didn’t make me mad. I was having a lot of fun with my friends, laughing and insulting each other at the same time.

    I think troughout my life I’ve been alternating between lvl 0-3 as sometimes the internet was bad and I got bored by games rather easily. The only points in time when I went above and beyond was when I got introduced to Souls games. I even got to lvl. 7 for about a month, when I bought Elden Ring. I had just finished my high school exams and was waiting for results, so I had nothing to study for (probably for the first time since I was a first grader) and my parents were on a holiday in Dubai and my brother still had school, so I was mostly home alone, meaning that I dedicated the whole day to this game, with only short lunch breaks and the mandatory bike ride around the park, to unwind from the rage. I had never felt so free in my life… then the results came, turned out I had to improve some grades at retake, then I had to study for entry exams and now I’m in a different country, studying medicine. Meaning my levels are back down to 0-1

    For about 6 years now i have been at about level 5-6 and get about 14 hours of playtime if i have nothing better to do that day, and maybe like 4-6 hours if i do go out and do something and while I do play way more often than I should, the one place I think I have really improved is getting control over my rage. I used to be at a point where if I was playing with a friend and died I would literally start yelling at them through the mic and insulting them. I have luckily though been able to improve myself and scarcely get mad at video games anymore. Even if I do it usually just ends up with me murmuring to myself about what is making me mad. Moral of the story is don't rage.

Every time I get on my Xbox (which is like once or twice a week for about an hour) he spams my party invites, and my ears get blown up by his raging in cod, while I’m just chilling, not competitive, and like level 30 on the game. I swear every hour or 30 minutes I get a notification saying he’s online, and in school he purposely throws up just to go home early and get on Xbox. I don’t even find gaming as fun as it used to be, but he can’t live without gaming. And i swear, he has like every game in the App Store, while I’m chilling with Pokémon go and clash of clans. I do care about him so I wish he would game less often and have a better life, but I don’t feel like his addiction will end anytime soon, if it ever will end. I even tell him I’m gonna take a break in hopes he will think it’s a good idea too, but nope, he just grinds some more while I take a break, but I don’t get on after because I get bored pretty fast of it.

I'm in the middleground of level 3 to 4, I dont rage much and I try to be a team player when i'm playing team games like counter strike, and im not too focused on rankings but its still kinda fun to see how good you are. Most of my gaming recently has been trying to achieve all the achievements I can in the games I own and I've been having a lot of fun with that! I'm glad im not anywhere higher and I hope I never go to that sort of level. Good video, cant wait for the next one!!

    I got quite hooked to video games during quarantine, I was only a level 2-3 but in 2021 I got super addicted, I was at probably the middleground of level 5 and 6, i’m glad I realized it early that this video game addiction isnt healthy at all because I was averaging around 4-7 hours each day, so now 2023, i’m back to level 2-3, I don’t take video games seriously anymore, and i’m glad I made that decision.

    I am happy to say I have no addiction to video games. :) I played games a fair bit as a kid, and I sunk a lot of hours into Minecraft around ages 11-13, but I was never too bad. Since then, I really just don't care and I'm a game dev myself. I occasionally play some games, but I quickly grow tired of it. Usually it is TF2, Minecraft, or Clone Hero. Sometimes one of my many PS2 games from my childhood. I have a pretty good PC, but it's been the same since 2017, and I have no desire to upgrade it. CPU's a bit slow, but I am not gonna spend like $600 to replace CPU, mobo, and RAM. Even then, the reason I'd want that is to render videos faster. The best games coming out nowadays can be played on 10 year old PCs no problem, if not Intel HD graphics. I bought Will You Snail? on Steam when it came out and that was great. You can run that on any PC that you'd reasonably be using nowadays. Probably even a Core2Duo laptop.

    When I was in middle school, I was a level 5, I was very competitive with video games and it was the only thing I'd look forward to. Fortunately, my parents recognized how bad it was and unplugged my console. Throughout high school, I was at level 0 and would only play at my friend's house, and I started becoming an outdoors person. Now that I'm in college and living away from my parents, I'm at level 2, and my parents are fine with it because they know I'm not addicted and enjoy other activities.

When I need to I can put it down for weeks and go to work, then get right back on the grind.

    I used to really not care about games back then from 12 and younger. But every since I moved to another area (I didn't really make any friends at that area and even as of now). I got more addicted to Minecraft, so much I would rage so much if i were to lose to much. Right now I'm 15 (turning 16 in like 3 months), and although I'm not a hardcore gamer (I play like 2-3 hours a day), I can agree that I'm somewhere around level 3 or 2, probs because I got more laxed in gaming and took school more seriously.
    Edit: I have taken a break from Minecraft and nowadays just play Pokemon and Roblox, just forgot to mention that.

    Once I was playing minecraft for so long in one day that I noticed how much a vine had grown in between the hours. Glanced out the window and suddenly it grew several inches up from where it was when I first looked.

      No one should really blame video games for their declining mental health. The only one who is to blame for getting addicted in the first place is you and you alone. Gaming, just like with every other form of media, is created for entertainment. Its main purpose is to keep you entertained when you're not busy with something. Don't let video gaming ruin your health. The best way to avoid getting addicted is to have self-control and being responsible. That is the best way to handle ANY form of addiction. As anything remotely fun to us humans can lead to an addiction. It's been that way since the dawn of man. Having self-control from getting any urges and becoming more responsible to your duties as a human being can prevent you from being an addicted junkie of any kind.

I’m a safe and happy 3 now, even have a GF who motivates me to be better but still enjoy my hobbies :)
