RE: Digital World Detachment

I can understand this. A lot of games today are fixated on being triggers that are like gambling that keep people playing and playing for honestly unhealthy hours. I kicked it myself for the most part but still play some but it's more of a back end thing if I want to relax and just have a little fun break or it's a rainy day out where there isn't much else to do.

I went cold turkey on TV many years ago and honestly my lifes been 100x better once I removed that. I also 90% removed gaming and you'll quickly realize how much time in your day you have to do other great fun things instead along with new hobbies. I started my own garden, found more time to write, more time to read and interact with people and it's just a huge stress relief

I definitely know that feeling. When I kicked the habit and went sober I was sitting there at times thinking "Holy fuck, I have so much time on my hands that I didn't know I had".

TV is still a regular habit for me but I try and switch it off and let my brain think in the mornings. I'm going to make an effort to watch less today after this comment you've shared, it's got me thinking how gaming and TV are very similar.
