Topic: I may retire from the gaming community pretty soon...

A lot of backslashes, trolling and other sorts is hard enough to deal with when there are worldly problems to worry about. I Don't know about you, but I may soon retire after what is going on in a lot of situations regarding games in general.

I''ve given up a past time hobby that most people actually enjoy...

I really Don't understand anybody around here either is enough for me to worry about. If you haven't noticed I have a "learning disability". I cannot control my thoughts if they are worrysome or not. I just can't. That is why I have a hard time finding a job and it continues with me until the very end. I just Don't understand it anymore. Outside of home, it just feels like I have been treated like a third world country. There are a lot of trials and bad situations I just can't handle...

/End rant

Have you tried maybe a blog to help you with control your thoughts or maybe even a journal of some sort?  That tends to help me at times when I feel alot of thoughts flowing through my head.  Or even maybe seeking out some professional help like a counselor or therapist if it's really affecting your life big time.

I second that. Whenever I'm feeling down, I sometimes write out why, and it gives me perspective. I also find exercise - no matter how big or small - is a great way of clearing out my mind and relieving stress.

Stick with it, man - just try to ignore the idiots online. There are plenty of people who love this hobby - and we're fortunate to have lots of them on this very site!

Life isn't easy and there are always going to be hurdles but I find taking things one step at a time has always worked well as well as things like keeping a journal. If you're feeling bogged down a bit with the gaming communities online than take a break for a bit try something new etc.

You could take a break for the time being? However, i think most Pushsquare members try to understand you! The guys above have some really good tips. When i feel down i go to the gym and pump some iron ( weightlifting).

I'd second what others above have said. For any kind of psychological problem (I've had a few), physical exercise is the single most reliable cure. I've had the weight of a psychological problem almost cut in half over the space of about a month simply by running for an hour a day. You need to keep at it regularly to get the permanent benefit though. Give it a try.

Not recently. When I see something on the internet that isn't even a problem in the first place, my asperger's gets the best of me and I seem to take it seriously even when it is having an argument on someone online who knows too much. They just Don't understand how to be civil when it comes to a debate and they Don't want to admit that they are wrong sometimes.

That is why I need to take a break in general or I''ll lose my mind.

Edit: I'm meeting with a counselor today.

Double Edit: I take my pills to help me stay stable.

Enobmah, I suffer from depression, I know its not the same thing but going to counseling has helped me a lot.... I'm sure counseling would also be very helpful for you

Well, best of luck with your counselor today

Thanks guys! Although I seem to be almost broke on money for I spent it on expensive case for my phone. =P
I also got Dragon's Crown for 20 bucks at Game Stop.

Wow, I take a day off from the site and one of the first things I see is this. Yikes.

I'm really sorry you feel that way. I've never really had disabilities (My uncle got me tested twice for asperger's, but it was negative both times), I have had times where I'm just stressed and I just can't deal with stuff well. I used to just take a walk around town to cool my head, or try to exercise...I say try because I've been out of shape for a few years. I'm not fat, just not athletic these days.

But anyway, I don't know if I could really help, but I will say just kinda stick with it. Think about what you do enjoy about gaming and put all the stupid crap at the back of your head. And just ignore the idiots. The people who just act like jerkbags with zero reason for it don't deserve whatever attention they're trying to get.
