Still need a lot of sleep.
I had a nightmares today and woke up in the middle of the night. Could sleep for about an hour.
Seems like withdrawals.-

One day at a time. Important.

Work is going pretty good so far. I mean it's hard for me to focus, but I'm not getting distracted.
Also, I take care about taking breaks.

Read some of WhoCares's journal. I can relate a lot to it.

Very regenerating sleep. Almost 10 hours and I feel it helps me today.
Yesterday I slept poorly and I had problems with concentration, probably as the withdrawal from gaming.
I wanted to use verb "rejuvanate" but it reminds me too much about my previous gaming experience. I'm happy that I'm aware of that.

Thanks WhoCares. I hope I am.

I went for the last 15 minutes of meeting.
15 minutes of meeting is always better than 0 minutes of meeting.
It's worth it.-

Let's start. 90 days. 1 day at a time. firm commitment.
Today it's day 0 for me. 25th September.
I'm gonna write here every time I feel the need as suggested.
Couple of words is enough.
I just want to be consistent and record my progress thru being game free.-

Hi I'm Haymitch and I came to this forum because I have serious problem with excessive gaming and browsing internet and excessive technology usage in general.
I was trying to deal with it in many different ways, but I always fail in that way. Tried couple of counselors and even went to some anonymous groups meetings before. But always I came to the moment of weakness when there is too much pressure and anxiety is killing me and then I relapse.
I work remotely from home and it is really tough for me. It takes a lot to control myself on using computer in general. So it triggers me a lot.
Yesterday I've found TEDx talk on how to quit playing video games. I was during my addictive session, but this speech really resonates with me.
I read more about 90 days and journaling idea, so I'm gonna write a bit about feelings and stuff like that.
And I want to make a firm commitment. To thrive thru this 90 days. 1 day at a time. I need to be game free. I need to learn to use internet properly. It may seem ridiculous but that's the reason why I'm here. To deal with this once and for all.
I hope my English here is good enough to understand, because it's not my native tongue.

Less sleep today. About 8-9 so it's coming back to normal.
Also I feel less tired. That's good symptom.
