Recently stopped and I'm always thinking about gaming.

Hi,

I’ve been addicted to video games all my life, and I stopped playing them completely 5 days ago. I was able to manage it for a long time, but it was starting to become an obsession, and I was spending way too much time sitting at my computer playing games in my free time. I stopped because I have young kids (2 and 4 years old), and I don’t want them to see their dad wasting so much time on his PC. I don’t believe it sets a good example.

After getting rid of everything gaming-related, I started drawing again (something I hadn’t done in about 15 years), and now I know I’ll also read more. The thing is, I always feel like I need something to do. I spent so much time gaming that I don’t really know how to handle all this free time or how to keep my mind occupied.

Do you guys ever had a similar problem?
