>used to spend whole days having fun and getting lost in vidya >now get extremely tired and fatigued just playing an hour or so >all my energy is gone and I have to force myself to play >just want to put on music and lie in bed instead
dopamine burnout from porn and stimulant addiction
Luke Thompson
This is your brain telling you to stop wasting time on children's toys and impregnate a female.
Jackson Roberts
>always wanna at least spend an hour a day playing vidya >always forget and just watch youtube and post on here all day >every time i try to play something i just either get bored and miss my old friends or get mad >haven't had an enjoyable experience in at least 3 months when will the cycle end
>implying my brain knows the difference between a hand and a pussy As far as my brain's concerned I'm impregnating women by the dozen.
Bentley Diaz
You have a job or something? Sometimes doing something else will help bring back the urge to play vidya. Whenever I get to NEET it up for a while I have a grand ass time for the first two months then it dies down after that until I go back to work.
Eli Reyes
Have you ever been close to a woman you love.
When you do, you'll realize the stark difference.
Grayson Ross
It happens, user it's normal, put down the vidya for a bit and do something else, maybe watch anime or read a book Eventually you will get tired of these too and go back to vidya
Ayden Young
You're actually an extrovert non-autistic guy who wasn't meant for this lifestyle at all.
Eli Lopez
>succumbing to your ancenstor's normalfaggot genes LMAOing at faggots like you, sounds like you can't even be in full control of your emotions and feelings at the age of 18+, pretty fucking pathetic if you ask me.
What're you, fucking retarded? Your brain absolutely knows the difference because you're knowingly fapping and not balls deep in a woman. Do you think your brain is somehow acting separately from yourself? How can you be that detached from reality
Jonathan Lee
It's so pathetic isn't it? This built-in fake purpose that is so easy to ignore but still manages to bother everyone. Imagine actually sticking to it and expecting it's the path to fulfillment like a fucking fool. Biology is like a trickster god when it comes to that shit.
Samuel Reyes
I’ve been there. Usually it’s because there’s nothing I’m looking forward to. This year has the last round of games I’m looking forward to for awhile. Elden ring, ff7 remake and cyberpunk. After that, I don’t know. I’ve played video games a long time, i might take a large step back. My mind is just not as wowed was it used to be with games since, oh probably 20. Now 27 and I feel like most games aren’t really impressive or amazing anymore. Just something that’s entertaining for a little bit but nothing I’m that passionate about. I too remember playing n64 and being able to be entertained for hours trying to find secrets in Zelda oot and then later with ps2 just having the time of my life with games like fight night 2004. T imagination would fill in the gaps that the games left with stories and everything.... not anymore. Kinda sad.
>enjoy game for the first half of it >start getting tired of it when about to beat it, just want it to be done >try to get into other hobbies >bored after 20 minutes and want to go back to vidya
Yeah, the sauna effect basically. Contrast is the most important factor. You can have contrast even without having to work though, try it out if you ever have to NEET for longer than a few months.
Kayden Cook
Used to think it was depression. But now I'm not depressed. I just realized that all video games suck. Game Developers are being controlled by Jewish people.
Justin Gomez
I understand this all too well. So this is what I do when I get like this. Do the opposite. tell yourself you won't play anything for a week. It's like reverse psychology on yourself. The second you can't/won't/will not have what you're used to. Your mind will start to want it back.
Jayden Sanchez
Art and friendship exists on the same level in my experience, so really just about everything is hollow probably. I don't know why you'd expect something different elsewhere, you can still care either way.
Connor Robinson
You know the answer to your own question. You know why you feel this way. You know why this is happening. The real question is, why do you not take action?
Why do you stupid faggots endlessly pretend to be oblivious to your own lives? You know you're going to die one day and deep down nobody here actually wants to do nothing but play video games until they are gone. You can make a million billion excuses, >I'm lazy I'm autistic I have health problems I'm scared I'm depressed If you have the capacity to at least physically walk and type on a keyboard, if you're not literally bedridden and emaciated from disease, you have the capacity to change your life.
>How?
Figure it out yourself and make your own decisions instead of remaining in this permanent loop.
>you can’t do both! I bet you work on the lawnmower on Saturday morning then go to Home Depot later to buy paint for your house trim (10 years out of a 20 year mortgage) and then you paint that fucking thing. Then you go inside at 8pm and put on some low budget movie the kids can watch that you don’t even enjoy. Then you lay down, thinking you accomplished something and scoffing at the men who choose to enjoy the fruits of their labor rather than spend their free time doing more work
Nathaniel Perez
Better a tranny, which i'm not, than living as a useless vegetative normalfaggot Play better games Get better tastes
Ryan Campbell
Most people who are depressed are so due to miserable lifestyle i e playing video games and expecting anything rewarding in return.
Jose Lopez
Depression, burn out and hedonist treadmill
Joshua Edwards
>You know you're going to die one day and deep down nobody here actually wants to do nothing but play video games until they are gone. Why not? That doesn't sound too bad. What's the alternative, socializing with others until I die? Christ, I'll take the games. The outcome is the same, I couldn't give less of a shit the way I get there - may as well be doing something I actually like doing.
Gabriel Hughes
>playing video games and expecting anything rewarding in return So it's not playing bideogaems that it's depressing, it's the faggots in this thread expecting something rewarding in return that are fucking retarded. And even then, i consider every experience with a game to be the reward itself, but again, i don't expect these normals to understand.
Christopher Sanders
You're not special. You're just very very dumb.
Benjamin Morris
I think the problem isn’t video games, but too much of it. Games, movies, internet... they’re salt. And well added salt can make something tasty, but too much and it’s wrong. The taste of the meat is still there and you want to enjoy it, but it’s just too much and the salt ruined it. Same with vidya. Except in this case we over salted so much we started hating the meat too.
Nathan Lopez
Let me guess, and you're here to enlighten us all.
Jacob Green
The only way I can play video games anymore is if im high on drugs. Feels bad.
because youre using videogames to distract yourself from doing the things that need to get done instead of playing for fun
Ian Torres
I can kind of back up your statement. When I was a kid and before internet became an actual big thing. I was only able to have maybe 2-3 games for birthday/christmas or rent them. But these days? The market is saturated. it's like how netflix became almost too easy to watch things.
Mason Flores
coombrains.
Lift weights and do something productive like reading the bible until you feel like playing again.
>Shitty pic made by someone with photoshop >Somehow this is supposed to rebuttal something >"coombrain" a meme term used by this broken age of zoomers by shaming men for wanting what men have wanted since the dawn of man. >Suggests reading a bible or working out. Both things are based on a fantasy that bible or working out will do anything for those who have no desire to do these things. You are the worst form of human.
Christopher Jackson
Do Yas Forumstards still think masturbating twice a week gives you chronic depression?
Parker Nelson
Welcome to the age of "everyone needs to be on meds because we're not robots made to work like machines" era.
Nathaniel Scott
>working out will do anything for those who have no desire to do these things. Yes working out does do wonders to you. Exercising is good for you physically and mentally. It gives you a goal to work towards too and your confidence will go up massively.
Jackson Cooper
I feel like it's the opposite for me. >want to play game >takes about 3 hours to get to anything meaningful (ie. items, skills, quests, open world to where you feel like you're actually something in the world of which you're playing) >Get bored as fuck and just throw on something I know I'd like >Try to revisit game a few months later and I forget controls and have to restart >repeat cycle forever
Kayden White
same desu
William Wright
Which is made up. Working out won't make you successful, it won't make you not ugly.
Ayden Johnson
I gave up multiplayer games and it fixed this problem
Alexander King
Im 33 years old and got diagnosed with schizoid personality disorder last year. Note that this does not make me some sort of a spastic fucking retard I have a very good job in IT and get along with people well.
It does have to do with the capability for escapism however, and the fact that schizoids live inside our heads a lot of the time. There is nothing better for me than to plunge myself into my internal world of vidya fueled fantasy. I know a lot of it is silly but there are hardly disappointments and I enjoy it very much.
I've always felt like vidya is the best shit there is out there and I was born just in time to use it to my heart's content.
Inb4 girlfriend, pussy etc, lmao I get you want such things but sorry, I'm not a fucking nigger.
Josiah Rivera
Hahaha what a retard you are. You’ve clearly never done anything related to physical exercise. It releases dopamine and your sense of self worth goes up as you’re actually accomplishing something. Even if you’re an average looking guy, women will look at you more often if you’re ripped and your chances of having sex go up massively. Only a retard wouldn’t work out.
Logan Peterson
this 100x i got bored of vidya fell into a depressive rut got motivated out of nowhere to get Yas Forums and hit up a jiu jitsu gym met gf at bjj tourney
things are much better now than when they were 2 years ago when all i did was play vidya
You sound like you are desperate for pussy and underage.
Sebastian Walker
I've played baseball, soccer, tae kwon doe tournaments, and cross country. You're literally fucking wrong. I have weights and I can move them up and down for a period of time. it will do absolutely nothing. You are delusional. which is why you read the bible.
Luis Lopez
If you can't get pussy, success is meaningless. There are plenty of billionaires miserable.
Luke Rogers
>muh left >muh strawman >muh twitter screenshot Why are you this predictable all the time? The sad irony is that you probably have ton of NPC Wojaks on that HDD of yours to whip out when confronted.
Hudson Cooper
>If you can't get pussy, success is meaningless. I'm starting to realize this. Becoming a doctor was a mistake. I should've just realized I was going to be forever incel no matter what.
Evan Davis
OP just lost interest in videogames nothing wrong with that, maybe in a few months he will be playing them again like nothing happened What's bad is that once you lose your only hobby, your life becomes hollow and you start feeling depressed and empty. There is no point in forcing yourself to play vidyer. Try a new activity.
Liam Perry
>You are the worst form of human. Natraual = good.
So put on music and lie in bed. Do not deny it. If you do something for too long, you will burn out. If you take a break, you may enjoy it again. You already know what must be done, just let your whimsy guide you back to bed.
Luis Lee
Try working out once in your life and you’ll see the difference it makes, kiddo. >I move weights up and down for a while. That’s not working out. What are your goals? Are you actually working towards something, do you have a work out plan? Even doing simple pushups and sit-ups can make a difference.
Jonathan Morgan
if you're a doctor you can prescribe drugs, you should be a literal pussy magnet
Parker Carter
It's true, you can be the richest and also the saddest. Isn't it amazing how people seem to group up despite their social status? How a woman can fall for a criminal but not someone who could give them everything?
Moving weights up and down IS working out, retard. What goals? We live to die. Government wants to work and to supply to the people and a share of the profits.
Dominic Wood
your not playing the right games amazing indie games come out on steam like every 2 weeks they are kinda hard to find
Bentley Powell
lmao look at this guy, so hurt by NPC Wojaks he's already seething before even being reminded he's one
Christopher Jenkins
You're going through puberty. It happens all teenagers. You'll stop being mopey bitch when your hormones even out
Aiden Baker
take breaks every 2 hours and stop trying to binge games, anyone gets sick of playing the same game for 12 hours straight
Luis Moore
What the fuck kind of retarded logic is this?
Jaxon Nelson
How old are you pal? I'm 28 and I still enjoy games.
