Video games aren't fun anymore. They just make me rage, want to smash shit, want to scream and shout. When something goes wrong with a game or my console I get tense, anxious, angry and feel mad. Games are all about making money these days with micro transactions like FIFA points. I used to be fun when I was a kid but as an adult gaming just makes me mad and sad. I want to quit but don't know how to start. Help plz. Thanks.

I gain largely little from playing FIFA. It is true what you say.

Hi, I am trying to quit gaming as it causes me nothing but stress , anxiety and anger. I lose my temper when things go wrong with my console, an Xbox One S and it causes stress and anxiety to my family. I am prone to swearing loudly, punching walls and hitting myself in rages. My Xbox One S console just randomly reset and turned off and then back on again whilst in the middle of a game of FIFA 20. It is gone midnight here in the UK so I cannot lose my temper but I feel angry anxious and stressed. I fear it may start doing this repeatedly and I will lose another Xbox. I had the standard version Xbox back in 2017 which I had from 2015 and in 17 it broke down completely with a black screen every time I turned it on. If this Xbox One S breaks down I will be angry, stressed and anxious and I am afraid I will explode with rage and cause my family stress and anxiety. How can I get through this? How can I keep calm? I want to quit gaming as it makes me ill and does not give me the fun and pleasure it did when I was a teenager. Help please???

Is this an anti video gaming group? Do you advocate against playing games at all?
