Hi

I have been trying to quit gaming for months with very little success. The game I play mostly is League of Legends. I am trying to learn to control myself, and I hope writing this post may help me out a little bit. Do you guys have any suggestions to what I should do? I have been thinking about just recording myself everyday for about 90 days for the 90 day detox thing to get myself started. Do you think this is a good idea?

 

Appreciate the support!!!

Alan

Welcome Alan! Thanks for joining us here. Keeping a daily journal will help a lot. I love your idea of recording yourself. It's a great idea.

Thanks for the fast response. I will post my journal and record myself tomorrow.

i have tried quiting so many times and failed, because i had nothing to replace it with. you have to work on that aspect the most, find other things to do

@GoodJob Thanks for the reply. I'm currently looking to replace my gaming with exercising and reading more books. I hope this helps me learn more about myself and helps me explore options other than gaming.

@Csaba_Bekesi thank you

Hello Alan!  Quitting isn't as hard as it seems. Stay on the forum and you'll be fine  I suggest you to give away your LOL account to someone. Anytime you'd like to play it again you will have to ask for it. The person should ask you then, if you really want it. It may stop you from relapsing. And remember that you have to find activities to replace gaming. It's not about replacing it with time wasting activities like browsing, TV series or anime. You quit gaming to have fulfilling life, right?  I recommend you to check it out: http://gamequitters.com/hobby-ideas (lol, an ad ). Good luck, bro!
