I think for me personally video games represent an escape. Much like a drug user might use to escape their real life and try to forget all their problems. I am not going to cry and look for sympathy, I know there are people that have it harder then I do, but I have had a pretty rough go of things. Currently I am living off my credit since my hours have been cut so bad at work that I can afford maybe part of the grocery bill per week and that is it. Most times I play games to get away from the stress and the problems of my real life. Is it a healthy thing to do, probably not, but I am working on correcting. So far so good, I am slowly rebuilding my life. Thanks in a big way to this and the MH forums.
