June 14, 20187 yr Hello Eli Would you mind giving me some tips about how to deal with the inner resistance? I am on day 17 and I feel like that I simply resist making plans to boost myself out of the state of replacing games with porn and junk food. I know that I just gotta start but it isnt that easy to control all that little knobs and switchs that are now available for me and for anyone else going through this right now. Somehow my responses to high level of unfortable things like the exam today dragged me down a lot.. Thanks in advance! Dirk
June 18, 20187 yr Author @dirkj3 spend time with friends! go out and talk with people and get to know other people in person better. Thats a fun way to replace games instead of porn/junk food. Things that are uncomfortable are just challenges to get through. It can feel depressing when things are hard, but instead of going to games or porn or tv or some sort of unhealthy thing, go relax by being with friends or doing something you enjoy (some sort of hobby besides games) :) Day 310! Eli

December 7, 20186 yr Congratz I'm proud of you staying strong! How do you remind yourself of knowing that games were toxic in your life? By the way, I am on day 4
August 16, 20196 yr Author I started my detox on August 14, 2017. It's now August 15, 2019. It's been two years having quit video games and I haven't relapsed, and my life has changed so much. I find so much pleasure in learning new things, improving myself and learning new skills. I spend more time with other people, I am unrecognizable. This journey has been amazing, and I'm happy to continue to live like this. I haven't even been on game quitters for almost a year. Hope the community is doing well, hope people are finding new things in life. Eli
