Hey man, so nice to find this video. I’m going through a gaming burnout right now and damn it really feels sad. I have played video games since I was three or four years old and always identify myself as a gamer. Now this year, close to my 30s, I’ve been struggling with gaming. Suddenly, I started to feel anxiety 10 minutes after starting my gaming session. It felt like I didn’t enjoy games anymore… It felt so bad because I really enjoy the industry, I love talking about games, I love writing about them, and my best memories are with them. After some research I realize that it could be gaming burnout. And I guess it is. I have analyzed my gaming habits it since this year started and man… I realized that I’ve been obsessed with gaming this last months and I’ve definitely crush out. I have desperately try to find new ways to bring my passion back and anything has worked. I think that I need some distance, or maybe i need to take a break. One thing I’m sure is that I will never ever leave this hobby. Is just a part of me. But maybe I need to change my relationship with it. Cheers mate!
Gaming was always considered as a second job in my thoughts... and you guys didn't realized... take it that way.. just go for a vacation from a very long time working. Youlll be okay i promise

My pc broken, age getting 30 , back pain, no friends to play with. All this led to my burnout. Seeing myself wont ever touch any game at age of 35
