This is going to sound silly, but would you enjoy playing a game like Farming Simulator, or Flying Simulator? There's even games for fixing cars, etc.

That could potentially help transition to something IRL

I have farming stimulator

based and redpilled

It never was very stimulating

darn haha

What about cooking? Do you do much, or enjoy that?

Yeah that’s fun

Well, there's no clear progression to that, but there are definitely some more interesting/technical books out there on the science of cooking and such, I know picking recipes for the sake of learning can be boring.

And just have fun with it or challenge yourself sometimes, be impromptu. A couple months ago I decided I should stop the frequent eating out I was doing, so pulled a bunch of random stuff like canned chicken, ramen noodles, and mixed it together using only intuition and no recipes, turned out decent

like getting hung up on formalities is a problem I have with cooking

or not having all ingredients

but f@ck it

Well, one option you may have is media editing. I don't want to pull a boomer on you and instead of recommending pursuing sports as a career, doing E-Sports. (maybe you're that good IDK you gotta be honest with yourself,)

Starting to create digital content of some sort

But hey like i said this takes time

for now, the next few months you could just make it a point to cook a solid meal every day and that'll keep you busy,

most people love free food, invite them over to cook for them

Because between transitioning off vidya, trying to pick up a book, diet, working out, getting good at cooking, you'll stay occupied for a while

what do you think about that?

@Trashboat I figure I've about spoken my piece now

Sometimes if the issue is only enjoying vidya, I believe a good remedy is to just go hiking or camping for a day or two, cook so it's not totally boring, and after simply spending enough time away from video games other things become more interesting

akin to how once someone cuts junk food, they can appreciate the nuance of others, quality in produce, etc

Anyways good luck dude, I've practically wrote a short essay here, gotta get started on my assignments haha

Yeah

Thanks a ton man.

I have more to go on now for sure.

One last bit of advice: Don't fumble with apps to keep you organized and all that until you're at a point where most of the stuff you're doing is productive, and you're having trouble managing it. Because just using the damn things can be a drag and chore lol

This was all from the perspective of someone who struggles with (a non-meme, genuine diagnosis of) ADD, if that helps you assess the legitimacy/relevancy of theadvice.

Yeah I talked to my dad and he said something like boxing or cooking too.

Reading 30 minutes before bed

All that jazz

Boxing or a martial art is a great idea to, it's very engaging when sparring with others or practicing technique alongside peers

So there ya go, try the video game stuff I mentioned, and focus on cooking and a martial art,

GLHF :^)

Thanks billion man

work on something with your hands! someone the other day was saying how that's helped his mind. try to get away from screens especially if you are at a computer for your job

I can't really do that

I don't have the money to buy a home gym and start working in the garage

Working with your hands could be as easy to set up as card tricks or whittling
