    For me, a time when temptation to PMO is greatest is at night when I'm alone or the family has all gone to bed. Most of my interests or hobbies won't help because they would disturb the others.

    I enjoy online video games and wondered if there would be an interest is starting a game group. I'm an XBOX One player and it would be nice to have a group to schedule play nights with to eliminate possible temptation.

    Just an idea in case anyone is interested.

    Its bad idea because many people here are also addicted to games, actually gaming for me its one of reasons my isolation from world and get addicted from porn. Playing games is far from self improvement journey.

    Ok. I can see where this would be an issue for those also addicted to gaming. I was coming at it more from a social thing to do at a time when there aren't a lot of other options.

    Yea gaming is an addiction for some.
    I love gaming on the other hand. Ive played games since I was a little kid but fortunately for me, I am not addicted to it to the level where it negatively effects me. I have sat down for hours on end just gaming away but..
    I take pride in being a gamer and If I could, Id surround myself in the gaming industry and be a game reviewer or a game dev or maybe even a playthrough artist on youtube (always been my dream) so yeah.. Im REALLY attached to gaming but in a healthy way. I can live without it, I do most of the time and it doesnt effect my social life, atleast hasn't so far :)

    Sometimes, gaming is my best way to cope with urges. I'm a huge fan of games. I play on my pc and ps3. Although gaming does isolate you from the world, I don't consider myself an addict. I can enjoy the game and still control myself

    True. Gaming has helped me both in getting over my ex AND NF.

    Well that actually depends. For some it can be isolation if they begin to depend on it and it alone. For some it can be an invitation to a world of other people who share the same interests as them. So I dont consider gaming bad, like everything we have access to in this world of technology, it has to be consumed with a limit and the dependency on it has to be controlled. :)

    I used to but it was pay to win so i stopped.
    Play vain glory instead. Not a pay to win in anyway. Annddd the best MOBA on mobile :)
    Although stay FARRRRR away if you cant handle small triggers of PMO. It has a few things that may trigger some people to M.
