You're right to notice that it's best to focus on living life and not just simply avoiding games. Sometimes a relapse can teach us important lessons, learn from it and keep going! 

Thanks Cam.

I'm currently working on some entrepreneurial things while polishing my resume.

Doing preliminary research on a teaching model I want to apply for my YouTube Channel.

Awesome! Let me know if I can help at all. I have experience in these areas

I can't find better words to describe what you wrote. We think of detox mostly in means of avoiding gaming, where this is only one side of the coin, the other one is to improve our lifes. Second aspect, should be repeated more often, cause people rarely think about it.

Holy hell. Just finished a CSS & HTML course that was huge.
Next challenge, celebrate without gaming.
Probably gonna dance like an idiot in the living room.

Haha do it!

Man. Lot of stuff went down with my family over the last couple months. Long story short, I realized they're pretty damn abusive to me. So, cutting ties with them. Also, moving to California.
And tossing my gaming console in a pond.

Welcome back!

California loves you!

Great to see you back on the forum.

I remember we shoulda be accountibily partners couple of months ago. Are you interested into it right now?

Greetings, Mad Pharmacist

It's good that you're cutting ties with abusive people, it's sad that it's family, but I'm sure you will find someone who will threat you well. Keep strong.

California loves you!

And it's showing it!

Are there any meetings within several hours of Davis?

And, yes Hycniejsy, that would be great.

Next time I'm up in San Francisco I'll host another meetup. 

I'm still alive and working through a lot more than just games. I'll share the details later, but it's all blabla (childhood torture, sexual abuse, assault). Working with several groups and a therapist, diagnosed with PTSD, hate family, etc.

But here's the shit worth highlighting. 1) I've shared all the crazy shit I've endured with my wife and she still loves the hell out of me. Heck, she even sees how I'm pretty damn strong despite shit. 2) the more I face my traumas, the more I see myself as a badass instead of a fuckup. I mean, shit, most people aren't as strong  as me even when they start with advantages. 3) I'll continue this list later. 

Just told crappy father I wasn't going to deal with his shit when he started being jerkish. Feel damn strong about that.

My Game Destroyer ways totally approve! The pond is making good use of your console.
