What the hell kind of medical bills do you have? Why didn't you get your parents to pay for it?

same thing I play every day

>>385591805
I'm also a Dota 2 player. Don't you feel like the game just makes your day worse? All it does is remind me that this world is full of people I hate. I basically play it just to pass the time, like a normie would watch TV or a movie.

I actually end up avoiding certain games for a time when life gets me down.

Stopped playing SupCom when my friend killed herself back in June. But I've dipped my toe back into it now. I'd forgotten how much of a toll this game can take on me for some reason. Toss me into any shooter, losing or not, and I'm cool as ice. But SupCom. SupCom rattles me. There's so much to keep track of and the prospect of failing my random teammates online horrifies me more than in any other game.

I hope she's still out there somewhere; shouting at me for how horrible my strategies are like she always did.

I don't feel like playing when I'm sad

>>385589181
When I'm feeling down
>grab dsi
>grab jrpg (doesn't really matter which)
>go to park
>find shady spot under tree
>headphones on
>get away from it all

>>385591927
yeah, basically you just click accept match and you get to think only about the game for 20-60 minutes because it's so intensive it's impossible to think about anything else

then the game ends and you win roughly 50% of the time and then you do it again

Not really for when I'm sad, but Rocket League with the volume turned down and a podcast or whatever in the background makes for a pretty good "zone out and don't think about anything" gaming time.

Nah. She'd been living on her own for a little while now but had this constant feeling that she was a failure and would remain a failure. Any time her mind wandered into thinking about her future, any fun we were having was muted a bit. She had some sort of extreme social anxiety too but I never managed to get any details about it. In fact it was pretty much the only thing she flat refused to ever discuss with me.

Still surprised she did it though. Always thought she was a little stronger than that. Guess that's my mistake.

No vidya helps.

>>385593334
at least you got a date anon. Did you call back?

Katamari Damacy or We Love Katamari

>>385591461
its not a sickness if thats what youre asking.

>>385593406
Yeah, I actually get tons of dates but I have been in love with the same girl since 2013 and she constantly refuses me. No girl I've met has made me feel even half of what I feel for her.

She's a bitch and doesn't deserve it honestly but I can't help it.

One of these days I am going to find out she's engaged and it's going to hurt.

Sadly, diablo 3. I just start a new hc character and will go through the mindless grind for a few days.

>>385593552
are you at least getting your depression treated? There's no way out but up...

>>385593664
My depression is solely because of her and I just don't have time to go to a therapist.

I'm not suicidal or anything, just empty.

Even after cleaning myself up, making money, getting a top notch education etc all for her it means nothing.

But it's ok. Life will be ok.

>>385591707
>Fap daily
>Play vidjya chronically
>Only talk to anons all day
>No social contact
>Only leave home for necessities

If this somewhat describes you, you are probably depressed. Get a game buddy that cares about you.

>>385593796
Honestly I have problems myself, and I have no idea what to do with them. I constantly feel like a failure, and even when setting goals I imagine I will just abandon it down the line, and I demotivate myself completely. It's not that I'm incapable of achieving things, I just can't seem to find the willpower to take anything seriously, and I feel shitty all the time... have any advice ?

Vanilla WoW

It's very therapeutic to listen to WoW's soundtrack and just chill out and grind some enemies for awhile. Maybe get a value drop or something

Games don't make me happy anymore, I'm either sad or just apathetic all the time. Yesterday was my birthday and I didn't even get out of bed all day.

>>385593917
Work out.

Working out gives me a high that allows me to push forward. Eventually if you do it enough it also gives you more energy and confidence which allows you to accomplish more.

It's the only thing that got me through my MBA program when I was depressed because I didn't want to do ANYTHING before I was working out.

>>385594041
that sounds like legitimate depression. You should attempt to find help

>>385594041
Wow senpai. And I thought my birthday was uneventful a few days ago.

>>385589181
I just play an MMO and get more depressed, then eventually go play something bright and colorful like nintendo to end the depression streak.

sex and exercise are the only things that will get rid of depression.

I don't even think about videogames whenever I'm in my moody episode, I just feel guilty about doing indulging things I ended up doing nothing but to cower in fear and trembling on my bed

>>385592341
i find it a lot more enjoyable to queue with friends, im guaranteed to have someone that can understand english and does understand teamwork

Anything bound to make me further feel sad, lonely, or similar feelings.

The way I see it, these things tend to work themselves out on their own. In practice, bouts of melancholy come, stay for a week or two, then be on their merry way. Under normal circumstances, I try to avoid media likely to induce these feelings, so I try to get games, movies, anime, and the like out of the way while I can.

The real trouble comes when an otherwise enjoyable game comes to an end, leaving me feeling down and incomplete, for lack of a better term. Most recently, Persona 5 served as a stark reminder that I really don't have any friends and have spent the majority of these past four years locked up in my bedroom,
venturing away from home only rarely.

colorful or fun looking environments. mario sunshine was my go to long ago, island delfino and the soundtrack were just really relaxing and happy to me.

The Sims is always a nice timewaster when I'm bummed about something.

It's an inherently depressing game and playing it while I'm sad makes me happy for some reason.

I played through Majora's Mask every time I've felt that I lost a part of myself. The day the closest person I had to a father died, the day I realized I'll never speak to the girl I love again, the day my hopes and dreams all fell apart in front of me.
A full playthrough takes a few days, at least on my schedule. By then the pain begins healing on it's own, but I feel like playing a game about healing people's pain helps heal my own pain a little bit.

or perhaps it's just that it reminds me of a better time.

>>385595552
I exercise at least twice a day and I'm still a miserable neurotic basket case most of the time.
