I have gone through and added up all the time that I have spent playing video games it has scared me how much of my life is wasted in the digital realm. I have spent 4,000 hours on war robots and roughly 17,000 hours on all the video games combined

I wish you luck on your journey! I myself am working on overcoming things that I have tried to overcome in my past.

I have spent over 4,000 hours of my life inside the video game war robots I didn't see how much gaming was affecting my life it stated out as a B student and pretty good socially but once I stated gaming it consumed me, I found that in this game only best can win so I wanted to be the best I didn't want to run from anyone. after about 3 weeks my grades fell so that I would rarely get a C and I stated to skip social gathering so that I could game longer as my gaming progressed, I stated putting money into my game to the point where I would spend 10-20 dollars a day trying to buy the latest and best items. I started to see my life decline and wanted to stop but I had come to believe that my happiness was found in this game. I also found my self-worth from playing. I tried to stop playing by myself but relapsed twice. so now I am on this website look for some help I want to quit playing is so much, but I don't want to delete all the money that I put into this game unless that is the only way. any suggestions?

Sorry, I was busy yesterday and couldn’t update my journal… Today is another success I didn’t game too long! Small accomplishment but I will take what I can get (-: I couldnt up date my journal yesterday becase i was busy all day long.

second entry! pretty excited to share how my days go! today has been an average day with nothing to report. i am going to hang out with friends for a Christmas party in a little bit!

this is my first journal entry! I am not quite sure what to put in here but... Today I resisted the urge to play extra video games (I have a set limit of time that I play to than I go offline) I am working on reducing the amount of time that I play in a day.

i have found that when I don't get to play video games, I don't feel fulfilled.

I keep playing video games when i should be doing school and chores any advice to stop this. I have tried to put my devices away but i always end up playing on them.

hello this is my first time on the website i am 16 years old and looking to get over my addiction.
