January 1, 20179 yr Hi, I'm Steve from Canada and I'm 33. I've been a gamer for as long as I can remember and I want to stop. Over the last couple of months, gaming hasn't been as enjoyable as it was before. Now it seems more like a waste of time than anything else.Today is the starting point for me so I would appreciate all your support. Edited January 1, 20179 yr by Stevec2283
January 2, 20179 yr Hey @Stevec2283, great to see you on the forum. I can relate to the "not as enjoyable as before" thing, but I haven't found that a good reason to quit. There is always another game or something like that to make it exciting again. However, the nagging feeling that I get every time I game, the thought that says "this isn't what I should be doing, I should be studying, this isn't helping me in my life at all, I don't have time for this" works a lot better. Of course, it's still possible to numb that feeling. If you want any advice, then mine would be: read the articles on the blog and watch the basic videos on the youtube channel, because it's very important to understand how the addiction works as soon as possible.
