    Have you ever at any point stayed for a long period of time without playing games because of a few reasons here and there?

    I have those days some of the time. I think depending on how bad the electricity, homeworkj and job issues may come in. I have those days where I go through such stuff.

    Yes, I've stopped playing games for a month or so. I have a lot of projects to be submitted in due time. Even I really want to play to relieve some stress of school I can't because my extra time is really limited. So instead of playing I do rest during free time.

    Yeah, it is usually due to lack of motivation or I have other things to stress over or handle.

    I can handle without much gaming these days. Most of the time I do gaming for the time pass for sure. Not something serious.

    Yeah, i think everybody had experienced their gaming halted for a period. It's not that one doesn't want to play game anymore but due to responsibility and priority. When i was reviewing for my board, i stopped playing for two months...no game at all.

    Honestly, there are times where I probably should game just to relive a bit of stress and get my mind off of things.

    I think less games the better mind stays and also we get to work consistently on one thing too. So less games the better.

    I agree to some extent. I think games are good if need a good stress reviler or are rewarding yourself after a hard day's work.

    I wish to increase the time it has from my daily games. I want to avoid spending time more on the games. I hope to do that this year.

    Yes, I have once in a while in gaming. I mean for a few hours or a day maybe. I can't stay out that long like for a week or so. During no gaming time, that's the time I'm doing my other hobby which is reading novels.

    It is better to stay without the gaming for long. Because gaming is depression addiction. and it can be pretty bad on many notes.

    Well, it really is about self control. It is real easy to get addicted to anything.

    Yes I have I haven't played any game for about 2 years now and am ok. Am not addicted to it so I don't have a problem, I can even stay for many years without gaming.
