NEW VIDEO: Why You MUST Quit Gaming in 2025

Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

My name is Michael Lee I've been gaming for about three years now I'm 19 years old, and last year I failed out of college due to depression. Which was not aided by my gaming habits to avoid the world. Since than I've only gamed more even though I know it's one of the reasons I failed.

Today was my first  day off the detox and the first day I haven't  played video games at all  in a long time. I feel very on edge today everything has annoyed me. And going to work was exhausting and difficult. I work in the food industry and I don't want to be rude while doing this detox any hints or suggestions.

Also I don't want to be unable to ever game again. Bad attitude starting this detox but it can't be just bad if it's in moderation right? I'm doing this to prove to myself I can live without video games. But I have no friends outside the realm of gaming and honestly it terrifies me to possibly lose them.

Hi Michael,

Welcome to the forums! Focus on the 90 day detox and re-evaluate your situation afterwards. Continuing to game isn't going to solve any of your problems or depression, but taking 90 days off can support you in making positive improvements.

This story is worth reading too.
