Day 20/90:

Good day, productive, but interestingly I had an urge to play a game. It passed fairly quick as I rationalised that it's a waste of time and I have better things to do, so it was easy to avoid. Was interesting though as I haven't really had a big urge since I started the StopGaming journey. It might mean I'm starting to heal, though? Which is great.

On to tomorrow, see you all there 👍👍👍

Day 21/90:

I'm starting to think of earlier days when I played games that had been lost deep in the dark recesses of my subconscious 😂😂 Good memories, feel-good stuff, but I think this is definitely the brain healing itself from the prior infestation.

Should have another longer post sometime over the weekend.

Apart from that, everything is going well - I don't have time to game and as I think I mentioned before, it snowballs, because the busier you are, the less time you have to game, the less time you have to procrastinate, the less chance you have of playing a game, the less time you game means you think about the game less and the FOMO etc. and so you just don't play the game, until the snowball is so large that there isn't any going back.

See you ALL. AT. THE T-O-P ⚔🛡⚔🛡

Edit:

Just to add, and this isn't necessarily an issue for some people, but I've decided to also keep a no porn daily tracker. I won't go into too much details in my logs about it, as this is a game quitters forum and not a porn quitters forum, but as I'm enjoying the logging so much and it's keeping me accountable for games, I'd like to also log my counter for no porn.

Added PornFree/NoPorn daily counter

Day 22/90:

Did watch a few gaming videos briefly, but no urge to play any games. Been really busy lately, quite stressed out because I've got a lot to deal with right now. I'm just looking forward to 2-4 weeks into the future when I don't have as much to deal with.

Staying strong, though.

Day 1/90 PornFree.

Day 23/90:

Real busy day again today, feeling tired, no time for even any game videos today.

I do need to get around to completing a full media blackout of gaming, but that will probably be in like a month or two, sometime in December, as I'll be too busy to do one within the next couple of months, realistically.

It's all about the 'See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil', but you can apply that to anything, and if you do, typically you can overcome your addiction. It really is about completely removing any traces of it from your life.

See you ALL at the very top. ⚔🛡⚔🛡

Day 2/90 PornFree.

Day 24/90:

Another real busy day, but did watch some of the UFC fights (Spoiler: What a bummer about the main event!)

Didn't have any cravings today as I was very busy. Not much to add, but a productive day.

See you all tomorrow!

Day 3/90 PornFree.

Day 25/90:

Supra busy as usual, no time for remotely thinking about games today. Although I did come across a box of old games, was interesting to look through them all, but then just packed them away neatly.

Onwards and upwards, see you all tomorrow!

Day 26/90:

Good day today, did watch a quick video of a game as had a little downtime, but was all fine.

Not much to report right now, will hopefully write up slightly more insightful posts next week as I'm super busy right now.

See you ALL... tomorrow.

1/90 PornFree (I did peek at some, so gotta reset the counter for this, but we gotta keep goin'! Back on the horse!)

Day 27/90:

Very stressed out. Way more than I usually am. Don't have enough room in my brain for remotely thinking about video games.

"Itchy, tasty" (IYKYK 😂)

So an easy day in terms of StopGaming, but stressful in other areas.

See you all tomorrow, hopefully I'll feel a bit less stressed out tomorrow 😢

Day 28/90:

Still stressed but it's to be expected.

One thing I was thinking about: It's so much more rewarding helping other people rather than spending time gaming. With helping other people, that energy gets puts out into the world and generally just makes the world a better place. It's important to know if people are taking advantage of you, though, but if you help people you trust, they're way more likely to help you out in times of need as well, and in turn helps others, and it spreads.

Kind of a weird thought but it came to my head and even if you don't have much time, just dedicating a bit of time even once a month to helping someone, that's just so much more fulfilling and worth the time.

On and up, see you all tomorrow.
