I wouldn’t spend my time and energy on video games even if I could play them.

I watch people on twitch.tv play Street Fighter V, it’s moderately amusing, and passes the time. Have to mute the volume though since I hallucinate when people talk in real-time, occasionally.

Sometimes i wish i could go back into videogaming like when i was a teenager.
I can’t get into tv either. I just listen to the different radioshows and just sit or lying on the couch.
Wish i could get back into exercising.

I’m pretty sure they help keep my mind sharp amindst my negative symptoms. They are a great distraction… I just started playing a really old game called Sacred Gold that I love.

Omg, are you kidding me. Video games are stimulating, and you interact with others in many games, plus you use hand eye coordination, thinking on the fly, exciting and fun. Much healthier than sitting in a recliner watching tv. I’d die if I didn’t play hearthstone if waiting in lobby for drs.

I like playing them when I get into the mood. Playing Call of Duty was a stress reliever sometimes.

I didn’t know that It is good for your mood, but what I found was this.

I play video games to relax and to distract myself.
It’s good to have something to focus on, and something I feel I can control.

It helps me to have fun. Assassin’s Creed Rogue is very fun by the way.

It used to help a lot, because I always wanted to play. But nowadays it is a lot of stress, I always get voices or thoughts that make me break off when I play games. And the other thing is just that it is very expensive.
