Hi Sebastian!

Thank you!

What were you biggest lessons from your relapse?

Great name lol

Good job posting - learn from it and move forward.

Hey everyone. The UK Parliament has launched a new committee looking into video game addiction and they are looking for someone in the UK aged 18-25 who would be willing to testify and share their experience. Often these inquiries only showcase academic researchers and not the people struggling themselves (like us!) so it's a really great opportunity to share our actual experience with the issue. If this is you, please PM me and I can connect you. Here are the details:

Hi Jacob - welcome to the forums.

Hi Matt! Glad you decided to stop lurking and join the community.

Relapse can teach you a lot about yourself. I don't play in moderation because I can't. It's relieving to just accept that.

Hey Jonny, welcome to the forums.

Hi Ben - welcome.

Welcome to the forums.

Just coming by to say hi. Keep sharing, it's helpful.

What's your resistance to a community? You mentioned you were lonely in your journal and then here you post that you don't want to be a part of a community. I relate to it because for a long time I was lonely yet I pushed everyone around me away. It was when I started to really look deep down as to why that was (I was bullied a lot so afraid of not being accepted) that I was able to shift it and start building relationships again.

Thanks for sharing. 150 days is still incredible and if you did it once you can do it again. One day at a time. Learn from the relapse and use it to grow.
