    Wow, after 8 years of gaming addiction and not advancing my career…today marks the first day in my new position after a promotion. Exciting times ahead to include meeting new people in a new department. By the time I tested out WoW it seemed too dark and complex for me to enjoy, but I played alternative similar games to WoW.

    I’ve never been good at any of the multiplayer games I’ve played, getting sucked into League of Legends and OSRS. I still have OSRS on my quick bar, yet I’ve significantly lowered the time I play it. Most of the games I play, or have played, are single player. With ADHD (and autism), it’s going to be difficult to step away. I hope to completely scrub gaming from my existence soon.
    Thank you for all of your videos! My therapist shared one of your videos months ago. I’ve been watching every new video and slowly learning from each of them (and my therapist helping).

      @@emilyschroeder2308 Interesting. Take care, then and have a wonderful week (shavua tov!). Also, as the (first and last) name sound Jewish, have you ever thought to find your lineage, again, if I may ask. My apologies if I'm asking too personal of questions. I am a part of a Jewish community and both names have recently come up (Emily & Schroeder), which is why I am so curious. Thank you for responding, regardless!

      hey thanks glad you find the channel helpful and congrats on your progress. it sounds like you need to launch a project or something that you can apply your learning to or depending on your age get a part-time job so you can earn money and develop your character.

    didn't make money out of it

    for long periods of time it was just gridding for the sake of it.
