Day 79, you have work so hard man, sometimes change can open so many doors that you have no key for.

I look forward to hearing how your employees work out tomorrow.
Same, good luck, Vlad!

The VA knows some better techniques to better relieve stress and it's called Chair Yoga made by Louise Mahoney.
1. Begin by sitting on the edge of your chair
2. Place your palms flat on your thighs
3.Inhale/Exhale a few times
You can try to attempt one of 7 stretches if they help:
Seated Mountain Pose-Place arms straight in air while Inhaling/Exhaling 3 times
Seated Side Stretch-Place arms together in air and bend from left, Inhale/Exhale, repeat on right, Inhale/Exhale
Shoulder Rolls and Stretch
Seated Cat/Cow- Inhale, Lift your chest and arch the back, Lower while Exhaling
Seated Forward Bend
Seated Spinal Twist
Seated Triangle Pose-Leg bent, extend arms to side and lean while Inhaling/Exhaling

Got to take that first step, good luck, Zeeko!

I'm about 50+ days no gaming, about another month to go for detox. Keep relapsing PMO, I'm going to abstain from most forms of social media starting now.
Good luck, KO!

Like the way you handled this, good job Daniel.

Hey, at least you made it, mithras, keep it up!

Good luck, HappyCat!

Day 14:
I see you guys want to see my art, no problem, just click the link i set up and it should take you right to my DeviantArt page, enjoy .
I'll make this quick since i have a lot of schoolwork to do, my day almost ended when i got into a big debate about Interracial Marriages with a female, not really going into details, as the conversation i lost nearly made me leave the class in laughter.
Digging deeper into this critical thinking thing for the first time, this is something my brain would never do when i was gaming. On a positive note, these 2 years in school will be easier now, turns out that the VP of the school knew my dad as we had a good conversation about fixing up my portfolio for the school. Good seeds.

Hey Pete, would you mind sharing your nick/username on DeviantArt? I like looking at pretty things and drawing in progress

It's interesting how many people who try to get off the gaming on this actually have engaging hobbies. For example, your drawing, @Mettermrck's podcast.
>> I just hope i haven't offended anyone with what i posted on here, if i did i apologize.
The line about "chilling out the only way you know" was borderline weird. Not offending, just weird. It still puzzles me what exactly you thought about me that time)
It's nothing really, what i meant by that is just do what makes you happy in life, my bad if it sounded weird, HappyCat, because we all need a break from life sometimes.

Doing great Mettermrck, Day 78, small doses got it!

Just hold on, simmsjt!

It's alright, Skaliq, my grandmother was like that too. You're awesome for taking initiative in your life.

Nice -n.g-, i try to take breaks from sketching in my notebook so i don't burn out. Ever tried taking potassium, stuff's good for the heart and according to my VA doctor it helps with depression. Hence, if your potassium is low you start feeling depressed.
-
Ah...so you don't have anything to worry about, Zala, I'm sure you'll do fine just remember why you are there. Good luck!

Deep, just keep that positive additude, Shine!

It's ok Fern, your taking the first step toward joining us, plus don't feel bad at least your losing calories by walking to and fro.

Wow, your burning up Vlad, quick chug this down!

Situation with boyfriend has been fixed peacefully and it's been two days of giving my mother cold shoulder. I've been eating more, cooking by myself and even taken up studies again. The situation is far from being idyllic however.
My grandmother praised my cooking skills and I fear some cataclysmic even may happen soon. My mother was so secretly jealous she couldn't help exiting the living room without saying a word. No wonder, knowing my grandma's usual character.
Glad you was able to work it out, that means my last post was super effective.

House chores are tedious, good job doing what's right anyways.
I find some types of house chores relaxing after work day. This time I had fun since the appartment was visibly becoming a more comfortable place to be in.
Day 19
A strange day. I worked on few "critical" task formally but finished none of them because they are stuck on review phase. By the time I got home I was almost falling asleep, looks like weather's doing. Hot shower resurrected me so I am writing this post now. Nevertheless, I enjoying walking through the rain since I am well-equipped to do so)
Watched two new "Aboveguard" (solve the riddle to be triggerd) lore videos. I enjoyed video for what they are, installing the game back would be too long anyway. It's not like I don't want to play something, I sometimes even mentally skim throught the list of games I would play if were off detox. Funny how I came to appreciate library I already have instead of hunting for more. (:
Achievement corner: I was solving Go problems while commuting back home for the second time this week. This is a good way to regain my board reading strength. Hopefulyy I would find time to play some real life or online match, not just correspondece ones.
Almost there: Did 30 minutes of studying but had to spend it to set up more of environment which still didn't work. %)
Gratitude corner: Point goest to analysts from client's team, since they are react pretty appropriate to question about tasks. Another goes to my therapist, I can point out specific cases where skill he taught me were put to a good use, especially today.
Just keep at it buddy, glad you reasoned your way out of the video, i can't imagine the amount of downloading i would have to do to play one game, let alone multiple ones.

Day 13:
Just a quick post, my life is slowly getting off to the right track, my mind feels clearer and i feel more confident day by day, i'm more focused and attentive, and i can remember what i did from last week. I actually wanted to thank you guys, including Cam, for understanding my situation and not beating me up too bad, XD. I've learned a whole lot from just reading your journals and i was a mess, mentally. I just hope i haven't offended anyone with what i posted on here, if i did i apologize. As i believe in treating everyone fairly can have some benefits, but only if you relate with something positive. Here's to another day without gaming.
I'm grateful for not gaming and understanding people.
