I admit im struggleing with my loss I have moments of strength but more of weakness my support system isn't there because I am keeping all out of my sich for I don't want to make it worse so Ill admit I feel alone I feel abandon Im heart broken to see all I am doing to make this work yet I don't see the same with her yes I know the change will benefit me in the end but I am a athlete a competitor if she doesn't come back then I feel as if I still lose.


Did you go on your video games all day without stopping for meals or toilet breaks? If the answer is no, then you don't need to see a councillor. Do you work? If you do then you're not addicted to video games. Forget about what makes her happy now, if the odd game on your games consoles makes you happy, then play them smile If you are an addict, going cold turkey will have an adverse affect on you and your health.
Since my H left me, I've spent more time on my PC, mainly on DB forum and another relationship forum I go to. I've made a lot of virtual friends that I enjoy talking to. My H says he spends less time on his games and more time watching TV. This is from someone who spent a lot of time on his video games and PC games. You never know, once you start playing them again, you may not want to play them as much! Hope this helps smile
