Gaming is causing my depression. A week after release, Amazon is no longer selling a game, that game is now at the mercy of scalpers and flippers.

If waiting for price-drops becomes irrelevant. I'm done with gaming forever.

Every single Best Buy in my state has been hollowed out. Their gaming sections are now dedicated to used games. As much as I would like to sign up for GCU, the games I want are rarely ever on sale online.

Pretty much everything actually. I'm pretty damn poor since no job. So even if I was hyped I couldn't really buy much. Might get DaS3. One of the only games I'm looking forward to. FFXV maybe. KH3 most probably yes.

Star Fox Zero, Zelda Wii U, Tekken 7:FR kinda since it has Akuma in it, Nier: Automata, that new TMNT game by Platinum, maybe Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE.

I haven't actually played a game in awhile though. It's been like a month. I can't muster up the will to play anything that I have. If I weren't a poorfag NEET, I'd probably be playing way more often, but all of the games that I want to play I don't have the money to buy atm. I can't pirate anything right now either, so.

I feel like I need something new to play to re-invigorate my passion for gaming. But then that's probably an excuse since I'm sitting on a huge backlog I could get to right now if I wanted to.
>>
I got burned out on games a while back.

Then I got a job, but was still burnt out. I took up animating, and now I do animations for games for clients. Still ended up kind of burnt out, but it got better. Started enjoying vidya again. Then I got interested in firearms, so I built an AR and started going to the range. Now I play vidya in small amounts, but I love it a lot more than when I played it non stop.

tl;dr play games less and you'll enjoy them more.

Killing yourself in a sudden way while young seems silly unless the circumstances really call for it. Do crazy shit instead and then die when there is no other option. Don't off yourself without seeing some of the world.
>>
>>333240819

Yes, and I get existential crisis' when playing the vidya as well. Like, my life itself isn't real and has no meaning. Just mundane misery or mundane escapism. I kind of wish it was some epic adventure instead, even though I'm a lazy shit and don't like to get up and do things.

At least I hope that'd be the case.

Honestly I just itch for a new game to play.

I think I just need some new experiences. I want to finally git gud at fighting games, but it costs money to buy a stick and/or a fightpad for example.

basically all my issues right now can be traced to a lack of money

Advice from someone who has/still suffers from constant bouts of depression: find a secondary hobby.

I play video games a lot when I'm feeling less motivated, but I discovered a few years ago that I'm quite good at writing. Then I discovered I'm decent at drawing, and late last year found out I'm alright at making bad music using soundfonts and stuff.

But, it could really be anything. The kicker is that you'll really have to kick your own ass into gear sometimes. It can be tough, but I'm sure all of you are capable.

if all else fails and you can't get motivated, just have a good wheezing cry every 3 weeks or so. I always feel like a new man after one of those
>>
>>333245151

Yeah, it seems like they're only offering unpaid internships. At this point I'm just sending in my resume to places, disregarding the requirements. I've heard that they do this as a quality control measure, only accepting the "most confident" candidates. That's what I've heard at least.

I've thought about applying for NEETbux, but I always fall into a black hole. I end up doing nothing when I am a NEET, and that too creates depression, anxiety issues, sleep issues, etc. Nothing ever makes me happy. Either I'm too tired or I'm too depressed. I wish I could just get a part-time job and live on that.
>>
>>333245482
I'm already a writer, though I need to put more time into that hobby. I'm pretty good myself though.

I did want to pick up music and try learning guitar or the drums, plus start producing my own electronic music. I also wanted to try my hand at singing as well but I'm not sure if I'm cut out for that.

Otherwise, I want to pick up more physical hobbies, like lifting. I want to get /fit/.

I do kinda want to try picking up drawing but I don't think I'd ever git gud at that.
>>
>He doesn't have anti-depressants

Why not, they're basically free and are helpful

>>333245482

I lift weights. That helps me. And I do kratom, because it's fun
>>
>>333245728
Singing's a little iffy. It can be a lot of fun to just, y'know, sing a song every once in a while, but I personally absolutely don't have the voice for it.

As for drawing, that's another iffy thing. I'm blessed to be even remotely as good at it as I am (and I'd post an example but my PC died a few weeks ago so RIP) and it's a lot easier since I got a tablet.

Lifting is nice though. I exercise a fair amount, myself. Gotta keep active or my heart could cave in on itself.

Anti-depressants are good in the short-term. They can help carry you through unmanageable depression and anxiety but you still have to do the work

That's what I've heard as well, but you can never be too sure with that sort of thing unless you're on the inside probably.

I know the feeling. Lately I've been more productive though, writing more often, watching movies, reading more comic books, actually cooking for myself, etc. Everything BUT my main hobby ironically enough.

I really want disability though because I feel like I could use the money and put it to good use, like paying off my student loans so I can go back to school, buying a car, etc.

>>333245918
I recorded myself singing once and felt absolutely embarrassed by the result. But I hear if you practice and take lessons, you can sound good.

Drawing was something I used to try when I was younger. Maybe if I kept at it, I'd get better, but I'm entirely sure I'm terrible at it now and that I'd never improve.

I also want to take up parkour, dancing, and maybe the kind of wrestling you see in WWE and such.

>>333246023

True, you can never be too sure. It's possible I'm just wasting my time and energy, though I figure I'd give it a try. Yeah I'm getting back into studying Japanese and lifting weights. I even learned to cook a little (mom is kind of helping too. Seeing as she's well, the only one who cooks in this house). I've been thinking of getting into comics after watching Batman V. Superman. The lore really is deep.

I don't think drinking counts as a hobby but I won't get up and preach to you about it because that's a shitty thing to do.

Motivation is a killer, and it's what'll sabotage you most of the time when you're depressed. "why even bother? who cares? it'll never get better?" are all thoughts you have to slowly work yourself up to actively denying.

Do you know anyone that could help you out? Remind you every few days to do a thing? I had to do that for myself and it led to a lot of brief surges of "I can do this!" followed by "why am I doing this?" but eventually helped.

>>333246023
>I recorded myself singing once
Oh man, I've been there. The only time people will hear me sing now is if I'm drinking or among friends and everyone's doing it.

>True, you can never be too sure. It's possible I'm just wasting my time and energy, though I figure I'd give it a try.
Yeah honestly dude, if anything, you should probably keep trying, right? It's for the best.

>Yeah I'm getting back into studying Japanese
Now there's something that I want to get into. Always wanted to learn Japanese.

>I even learned to cook a little (mom is kind of helping too. Seeing as she's well, the only one who cooks in this house).
I want and need to learn how to cook. There are some people in my family who are very good at cooking and I think it's something that I can really learn and git gud at. I've been preparing some food lately that's been very good actually. I can even be a little inventive and creative at times.

>I've been thinking of getting into comics after watching Batman V. Superman. The lore really is deep.
Now if you want to talk comics, I can get you into those. Between the Big 2, I'm more of a DC guy, so I can help you get into the universe. Though lately I've been meaning to get more into indie stuff and comics that have nothing to do with superheroes.

Also I forgot: another thing I want to try my hand at is programming.

>Oh man, I've been there. The only time people will hear me sing now is if I'm drinking or among friends and everyone's doing it.
I sing terribly at home just for the fun of it but I'm probably never going to try to do it seriously ever again. I know what I just said, but man the embarrassment was cringe-worthy. Fuck everyone who told me I sounded pretty good.

What was once a safety net through childhood and adolescence is now a shackle, chained to conformity.
Video games are no substitute for loving care.

Man, I've actually been there. Most of the people on my father's side hate me because I'm into computers/technical stuff, while they're all into alcohol, hunting, and "redneck stuff". Where I'm at currently, none of my friends are nearby.

I went so far as to nail a to-do list to my door on the inside of shit I had to do just so I'd never forget about it. Sort of like virally advertising to myself, I guess. Worked pretty well, actually.

I had loving care and video games aren't even enough for me. I can only imagine what it was like for someone who had a shitty childhood. Bad enough I'm clinically depressed.

Major depressive disorder and a severe avoidance issue, at least what's been officially diagnosed.
It's a plethora of things, or a "perfect storm", as my shrink likes to call it.

Sleeps never been an issue for me. latest I get up is at 9. I just have a hard time staying asleep, but that's something that the booze helps out with.

My family likes me, I just know nothing about them and they know nothing about me so we never talk. Man it sucks not having any friends or anything. I think half my depression problems would be solved if I had someone to go out with and had a reason to leave the house other than work. But no, I'm stuck sitting at my computer and getting jealous at my internet friends for having IRL friends to hang with

Also cooking's easy if you have some semblance of what stuff tastes like

Mine just tells me I'm clinically depressed, and not much else really. I know they aren't supposed to say much, but for fuck's sake give me something else. I'd even be happy if she just winged it at times.

Often enough it is a perfect storm. People usually don't get like this in a vacuum. I know for a fact though that anxiety, depression, etc. runs in my family. Most of us are on anti-depressants, or addicted to something.

I guess I'm just afraid of judgment from some people I'll never meet. Man, I should've gone into Psych.

It's not a contest. If you feel shitty, you feel shitty. Someone might be a dick about it, but ignore them.

I don't know, man. I wrote out a big thing, but that just made me realize how silly the whole thing is. I could overthink it some more, or I could just tell myself I'm being a bit of a brat. If I post this shit anywhere, I feel like it belongs on /soc/ more than /v/, but they're pretty shitty from my experience.

It's really frustrating when being patient is about all you can do for your problem. Sometimes sitting and observing's good for feeding reality into your panicked psyche, though.

None.. It's gotten so bad that I've lost my passion for gaming altogether.

>or I could just tell myself I'm being a bit of a brat

I mean, are you? That's the thing. It can be good to air shit out once in a while, though nobody's forcing you to say anything.

If your reason for feeling bad is even slightly valid, I don't think it qualifies as "bratty".

>really frustrating when being patient is about all you can do for your problem
Trust me, I know. Where I live, there are virtually no open businesses. Everyone's packed up and left, and so people fresh out of highschool need to pack up and leave right away too, or else they get trapped here for years. At least there's a hospital, I guess.

I don't have much desire to play game these days especially with all the normies that have infested it

I've just been playing my favorites recently remembering the good times.

Thanks again. I guess I want some feedback, so I'll stick around even though I should be sleeping. It took some effort to write it out. I might as well see what someone else thinks of my situation.

>>333251506
Ah, girl problems.

I've had my fair share of unfortunate (and in some cases rather hilarious, looking back) interactions with women- though I know that's not what this is about, I just felt I should mention. I've counseled my friends through hard times involving men/women/xir/whatever, and so I do actually have experience there.

Though, none of that really matters. It's late and I'm spitballing.

Honestly, I don't figure you should feel bad for any of that. It's natural, really, to worry about such things. Anxiety and relationships are part and parcel, really- although I was slightly confused by the exact terms of what you and your SO have going on- but even so, it's totally natural.

That said, I've got no real advice. If I knew you as a friend, I'd probably be able to dole out some sagely wisdom or something, but the most I can do is acknowledge it and affirm that, yeah, you're cool for feeling that way.

How you end up handling it is your game, and all I can say about that is that people are weird. You never know how someone is going to react when you start dating them, or when you get anywhere near that. My two friends have been 'dating' for months, but only recently did one of them actually say they loved the other. I feel it's sort of like that. Possibly. I dunno man.

Sometimes get really enjoyable games with some /v/irgins but we never go further than Act 2 since we all break up and don't keep in touch.
>Have a bunch of recent games like XCOM 2, Legend of Grimrock 2, and Talos Principle but my GPU is dying so can barely run those at a stable FPS.

I can't help but boil it down to societal expectations at times. Around the new year I crossed an event horizon where I realized I had been being needy because I thought the two of us should be a certain way, when in reality that wasn't what either of us actually wanted. It was just something I expected to happen because my whole life I've been told it's 'normal.'

Our relationship isn't normal, though. It's weird, and that's okay. We might not be dating, but by definition we're fwb, and we're not seeing anyone else. She sent me a really corny morning 'I love you' text the other day, which was really out of nowhere.

You're 100% right, though. I should be cool with it, but I can't expect myself to be, all the time. Everything'll be gooby, and I just shouldn't stress it in the long run.

It's all good. Thanks again, and g'night anon. I have to wake up at 7:30 and it's 4:00AM. I'm only awake because I do this shit to myself when I'm feeling moody. Anyways, have a good one.

New releases have been disappointing me in a surprising amount, so I went back instead

Got Persona 3 and rather than playing it for an hour or 2 then just watching TV for the rest of the month I sat there playing it for 20 hours straight. My advice is pick up old games you missed and you'll actually like games again.

Enter the gungeon comes out in a few hours. I bought it because it looks fun. I want to play dank souls 3 but I'll need to upgrade my graphics card and add more RAM so that's going to have to wait. I hope the game isn't dead by the time I get around to playing it.
