Yeah such frustration eventually develops in everyone's mind. But that should not so intense that you can't even control it. Game is a way of entertainment, we should take that too seriously and take stress. We should act rationale here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously - I do not really know or understand why some people would abuse gaming to the point of it becoming an issue for them and even those they associate with.

Family sedan Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Well like saying, I don't want to go on a nature hike, all I want to do is play video games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole purpose is to enjoy and entertain, not succumb into a forced repetitive cycle. Seriously, some gamers don't really get that. It's actually why there are so many games existing at once. Once you can't have a breakthrough with one, you move on to another. Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a sign of addiction and they'd need to seek some kind of therapy. I do know of a few people who are like that irl and it's disturbing to say the least.

That's why they need professional help - regular methods are ineffective and gaming has become a hindrance to their life rather than a hobby that you enjoy and that makes it problematic.

Yeah - definitely seeing a therapist is one good way to the road of recovery for such addicts. I pray I never get to such level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's very encouraging my friend. At least, they now see you like someone with purpose now and not a lazy bum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we play games too much, the first thing is affected is our eyes. Second is our mind, which subconsciously keeps on accumulating the data, and later when we try to sleep, it just doesn't let us to. Whenever we feel that we are getting addicted, we should start taking proper precautions, and give proper rest to our mind and eyes. 😊 Edited September 1, 2021 by Razor1911 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
