R.I.P Ham

I decided that I should probably quit TF2 for a bit since I've been encountering several problems in my life such as me needing to get a band placement in my high school which means I need to practice a lot more. I'm probably going to stop playing other games too since I want to be as responsible as I can at the moment which means less Steam, so sorry to disappoint all my online friends. I'm probably going to start playing again until I feel less stressed as I still need to find some friends (IRL) and get used to public transit in Toronto which kinda gave me a phobia of getting lost within the city on my way to school/back home.

Not much people care, but I figured I would make this thread anyways, I won't be "hardcore gaming" until I get this depression out. Seeya for now.
 
Life is hard Ham but you are making the right choice here. There are certain days when there is no more time for video games. Time will pass on and you should be able to get a hold on your life. Then, only if you still want to, you can comeback to video games. Until then, Good Luck mate!

Just want to say I liked this because I applaud your ability to walk away and prioritize. Video game addiction is a real thing that can and does fuck up people's lives. God knows I've gone through Diablo II withdrawal.

Good luck in the real world!

Big fucking thumbs up Ham... don't be scared of Toronto ^_^. It's a nice place as long as you avoid Jane and Finch, and Church St.
Nice knowing you have the courage to drop gaming completely. :yea:
Good luck with your depression man... it's not funny shit, if you need help get some from your parents/guidance.

Thanks for all the support, after these few days at school it really wasn't bad, I just had to open up to my parents and friends. Depression is hard to get rid of and I'm glad that I did it before it got worse, and I really hope that other people with depression can open up as well. I do plan to get back on, but right now I still need to fight. So again, thanks for your concerns.

You're strong to admit you have a serious program and make a difficult decision to remedy it. I hope everything turns out well, good luck, Ham!
 
I know I already commented but I still have more to say. Depression is an important thing to open up about. Good thing you did because it makes you realize how many people care about you in your life. Life is tough, I can relate, but you got plow through it and make it your own. Don't be stubborn when people try and help you because there only showing you how much they care. One person came in to my life and filled a deep hole that has been there too long and hopefully you can find someone who can do the same for you. Good Luck Ham and keep your chin up.

Sorry to hear that man, didn't know it was as serious as it is. Find something that calms or motivates you and focus on that for awhile. That may lead to people who share the same interest, which results in a group of good friends. My friends get over depression just by hanging out around each other. A good group of people just to talk to and dick around with (irl) is probably the best option you can find.

Decided I'll be getting back now, had enough time to think about stuff. I've also been succeeding recently, having passed my audition and getting good marks on the few quizzes I had which means back to the black hole that is gaming.

No more Tf2 though, screw that game. Gonna sell my inventory for money.
