Introduction

[huggable1]

Hello everyone,

I am a 22 year old in the U.S. submariner leaving the military in a few months. I was born in San Diego, California, raised in Las Vegas Nevada, and put on shore duty back at San Diego, though now I'm finishing up my contract. I want to quit video games as I've seen and felt the consequences of those long hours spending time doing nothing but looking at numbers go up on a screen. I hate myself for doing such things, even being aware that other things need to get done and yet always glued onto video games. I've ruined my sleep schedule, my health is slowly deteriorating, stopped talking to my family, worried about finding a new job yet taking no action on such things, and scared to ask those close to me for help because I worry about what might happen even though I have no idea what would actually happen. My main goals after quitting is to get my life straightened back up, get a good job, socialize with others to find that special someone, make a fiction series, and to be healthy.

Hey you’ve already made a huge first step in admitting the problem. You can’t change things you’ve done, you can only have empathy for why you did them and better yourself for tomorrow. Forgive, but don’t forget.
