    I am currently at 157 day of hardmode.
    I was also doing dopamine fast for the last couple of months(no games,movies, social media etc) Recently i decided to end this fast and play some videogames. I played some pvp games with chat and whatnot.
    What i realise after a couple of days jush shoked me. The amount of men, exerting hate, anger, anxiety or even rage were astonishing. I was reading all these chat messages(usually about how bad player i am) and genuenly didn't understand why you need to spill all this venom on some stupid videogame.
    Then it hit me. I was exactly like that before, and din't even noticing this.
    Literally the only thing that changed - i stopped watching porn. I can't even comprehend how much that actually impact my personality.

    Was it counter-strike or league of legends? I remember how toxic those communities were. Did you find that you enjoyed the game better after the dopamine fast?

    You won't believe it. Starcraft 2. Some other games aswell.
    Yes, i enjoyed them, but unfortunately for me i realise how addictive gaming is. I started to play everyday and noticed that i had urges to game, wery similar to porn addiction. I am thinking to stop playing for good. It waste too much of my time for nothing.

    Yeah. How good you are at a videogame means absolutely nothing. Gamers don't realize how they're embarrassing themselves acting like it's super important.

    It's just a sign of maturity when your sense of priority (and your reward system) is set up so that you're not super invested in the game.
