RE: Consoling the gamer

in OCD3 years ago

I used to play a lot but then I figured it's not productive.

Now, I play once or twice a month, usually to talk with old friends, multiplayer games are fun when you get to crack jokes with your college/school friends on a weekend.

I have a funny habit of walking while thinking. I can't sit and think. I have to walk, so I walk a lot. Sometimes for hours when I am troubled with something.

Also, I usually listen to an audiobook in the evening, and walk for one hour(one chapter). My daily step count is usually way above 20,000 steps😂

Then, I see my nephew. He has his headphones on for about 8-10 hours a day. Always lost in his phone, barely talking to anyone.
Kids are weird these days. Sure, parents have a bit of responsibilty, but I see most parents are lost in consuming content for hours😅

Maybe only a few escape from this constant consumption loop. And start producing content. Or avoid consuming to that level.
