  1. Hey everyone, So I actually did manage to stave off gaming for about 2 months around 1 year ago but then fell back into it for the past ~10 months. Looking to hit 90 days, and I'll journal my thoughts and chat with you on your own journals as well. Thanks for reading, see you tomorrow 👍
  2. Hello, Today I woke up at around 9:40 AM. I went out with my family to have breakfast, buy groceries, and have lunch. I arrived at home an hour ago, and I stored all the groceries, and now I am writing this. Later I will store some recently ironed clothes in their respective drawers, and then go for a walk. Later, I will have dinner with friends. Day 1 without gaming, since my last setback.
  3. I realized today that in the Jack Dempsey book championship boxing. He said alcohol and cigarettes and late nights out weren’t considered bad. They weren’t scientifically researched then. He felt in his gut they weren’t good for him so he abstained. What I wonder is, are video games the same way? Are video games much like deep fried food and alcohol. Actually bad for people in ANY amount? Recent research indicates alcohol and deep fried food are bad for your health in any amount. Video games definitely have an overall harmful effect on me. Social media is something that also distracts, makes me lazy. But also makes me work harder sometimes so it’s maybe a neutral effect I am not sure. Maybe a slight negative is social media tbh. Detox is going well. I’m posting here, I’m putting games away with the intention that it be for good this time. Everything’s getting better. Things are hard and I feel that my mind must keep learning for optimal health. Just like my body needs consistent exercise and good nutrition. The negative effects on self esteem from social media feel kinda not worth it lol. Maybe we stay off that. Lots of good things to watch and read for me thankfully. Now things are calm enough in my life I can finally take naps. Calm down. I’d love to hit mma tonight but I’ve been tired. The right balance for me is, get 2-4 classes a week in. Keep trying for four per week. Eventually you’ll probably want to get from 4 to 6. Right now it’s 2-4. Yeah. Conserve some energy for it Ommmm The workouts are going good considering I’ve been draining myself for games recently. In a day or two I think I’ll start feeling more gas in the tank to go for it again. I had a mistake at work. I didn’t follow up via text for an appointment. Maybe I can type something generic like, “Hello Name, I have us down for 11am today. Is that accurate on your schedule?” Yes let’s just say that. It’s perfect. My swearings slowing down a lot now I’m not gaming. Fuck I’m so tired I need to rest
  4. An important milestone I thought it was important to commemorate. Thank you people for being an amazing community. There's still lots to come. Onwards!
