I feel I am worse off then people who game all day at the basement

I worked for my parent and get stress from time to time even though they do pay me.I love gaming since young and had tried to quit gaming but in the end I end up back gaming.I stopped medication last year and picked up smoking…so now I smoked regularly at work,I wanted to stop but stress got me back smoking…

Seriously,my life will be healthier and less stressful if I spend my time gaming and just eating/drinking at the basement

I think this is true for most people. But also for most people you’d wind up homeless doing that.

I agree,the best is balance…since I am not interested to be rich or getting higher status in life.I can go for a less demanding and less hour job…so that I can relax and do what I love in my free time

Yes,playing game in basement probably would not work

Balance is everything. It’s a hard thing to achieve though. I don’t have it but I try.

Circumstances dictate everything.

Sexual dysfunction and thinking that I will be ok as my mental health issue is not serious.I am also getting sleepy early in the work,my father used to be unhappy when I get to work and sleep…as it sets a very bad example for the workers.

I stopped meds for a year,to be honest,there is no difference,I mean the pros of not taking antipsychotic is I get to work not feeling sleepy because of meds,my sexual function is better…but I am still anxious,depress(mild) with antipsychotic or without…now I am back on it but low doses

Sexual function can be an issue if you don’t have sex.

I’ve found that sex sorts out a lot of problems. Without it your overthinking it and things are a little different in reality. I changed meds for sexual function but I wasn’t in a relationship and had no clue as to what was necessary.

Simple question. Have you had sex?

Yes,this is interesting.I was taking antipsychotic from 2009-2017 before I stopped for a year.During those years,I was masturbating and realize I had erectile issue(the erection is like 65-70%),that’s why I am embarrassed to hire prostitute or find a gf.I returned to meds 2 month ago,this time round I had a gf,and she says I should stay on my meds.We had sex(I am on antipsychotic),but strangely enough,my erection had little to no problem at all.

Sz obsess about the act for sure. When in real world sex it all isn’t as bad as you think!

It’s probably more of an issue with some antidepressants and for females at that. Your a male. Men are pretty well more built for sex.

If you want to do a part-time job and just game away your leisure, that’s your right. As long as you can pay off the various expenses that’ll probably be enough to support one person.

I’d be too scared of a financial depression to pull something like that off, plus I’m way old too, it’s time for me to start seriously thinking about making a family.
