Hi all, I don't even know where to start and even if I knew I'd rather spare you all. Basically I have been playing on and off since 2006 (vanilla Days). Took a long break at the peak of my addiction from 2008 until 2013 due to University (with obvious summer relapses in between). I re-started at the end of Legion and got into a very hard cycle of waking up, going to wow first thing in the morning, then stopping maybe at 3-5am. It sucks. I did the first maybe 3 weeks of BfA but it was escalating too much. So I created a random email and password, took note of the account details and changed my battle.net account to the new email account. The details I left overseas in another house which only I have access to.
9 days off. The first week was alright. But these two days started to take an emotional toll. I am feeling this huge sadness and emptiness. Also feeling lonely as hell even though I am married. However my wife is currently pretty distant. I probably triggered that distance when I decided to overplay wow. It really sucks.
Been doing the gym but not even that is helping me tackle all these withdrawal symptoms.
You know, I grew up gaming in all sorts of consoles. Atari, mega drive, N64, NES, you name it. However, I found out that I simply don't enjoy gaming anymore due to finding all games boring and tedious. With the exception of wow (of course). So my problem is not with gaming, but only with wow.
I am trying... Trying .. but the emptiness is unreal.
