June 2, 20206 yr My wife feels that way, chronically. Sounds a lot like depression, which is really common in addicts of all sorts so it's pretty likely.
June 2, 20206 yr This is a natural stage of recovery. The hollowness appears because bad habits are going away and gets gradually replaced with new activities. Continue pursuing healthy activities.
June 3, 20206 yr Reza, Keep pushing, try to find substitute activities to supplement the time, emotion and engagement of gaming. Cam has uploaded a lot of useful content to find hobbies. Keying on things such as what type of objective you enjoyed the most in a game, and amalgamating said objective into a healthy hobby. Know you're not the only one feeling such emotions. Talk to friends, family or a counselor if your despair is quite heavy! Sometimes admitting such feelings to loved ones is tough and embarassing. Counselors are trained, experienced and give a subjective, non-judgemental perspective. Stay strong! Keep your eyes transfixed on personal growth, success and wellness!!
