You could take a musical instrument or something else time consuming and mentally exhausting.... or just embrace your addiction!I use videogames as a means to escape the solitude and dreariness of my everyday life. Ever see the movie Groundhog's Day? That pretty much explains my life, except that I'll probably never be able to break the monotony.
I'm not necessarily addicted to games. I go for long periods of time without playing them. But usually the time not spent playing a game is wasted at Gamespot or other internet wastelands, which is arguably even less productive. Sometimes I wonder what would happen if all my games and systems were destroyed or locked away.
Sometimes I wish I could give it all up, at least temporarily, and live like a monk -- freeing myself from all material possessions. But I don't think I'm strong enough. I'm reminded of my unfulfilling life and sink back into despair, drowning myself in worlds of magic and gaming, hoping to forget.
Where will this path eventually lead me? I don't know how long I can sustain it, but I do know the ultimate destination. Along this path, my inevitable fate is to lose my life, by my own hands.
