wookieshark88 635 Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Thanks for the mention! It's been one of the most wonderful years of my life! One thing that I learned is that changing something so deeply ingrained, like my old video game compulsion, is that the change does not happen in a vacuum. For me, quitting games required examination and adjustment of many different parts of my life. I had to challenge myself to do things I wouldn't normally do. Sustaining that kind of change is only really possible if you can be happy with it. I learned that entertainment and happiness are completely separate things which seems obvious in hindsight. I could be thoroughly entertained for 10 hours straight with a video game, but I would also feel anxious and disconnected from life.I could go on and on, but it's time for bed. I hope to see this topic swell over time with posts of everyone else's successes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
