Tofu Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Hey everyone, so after a long time of not gaming. I tried moderation. It went pretty well, and you could still say that it is moderate, but it just doesn't feel right. I've noticed more and more it's becoming an escape, so although it still isn't affecting my life in a major way, it's adding nothing to it. So I think my brain has become attached to gaming again, so I'm going to quit again.Wish me luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FedererMagic Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Good luck with quitting . Now you've tried moderation and you learned that it's not for you, that's good to learn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cam Adair Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Exactly. Just because you can game doesn't mean you need to. There's much more beyond gaming that can be much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tofu Posted March 5, 2016 Author Share Posted March 5, 2016 Yeah, I also realized that even though I was being moderate, I was on the slippery slope towards gaming more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Yeah, I also realized that even though I was being moderate, I was on the slippery slope towards gaming more.For those who try moderation for what whatever reason, myself included. Recognising when you are in control of your gaming and the moment that you no longer are is crucial, good job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoked Beef Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 I also thought about moderation but came to the conclusion that it's just not possible for me anymore. After long time of being an addict, it can only be a one-way-ticket. It's very hard to accept that you cannot handle video games like a casual. I think the trick is to see that video games can be fun but, in my case for example, will cause more damage if you force yourself to think that you can moderate.Good luck with quitting!
