If I don't play video games because I'm trying to catch up in life, lets say, then I end up feeling very depressed. I go through a lot of pangs in my chest because of stuff I don't want to get into. There is importance in finding a way to give yourself a break from reality.

This is exactly what I feel.

Sometimes reality is too dark to think about and imagination rings happiness to oneself.

Definitely. When I'm in reality I empty my mind. I had it refered to me as "Taking out the trash". Trash being any thought that takes me out of 'this' moment. There is a book and a movie called, "The Way of the Peaceful Warrior". It really changes lives. That, video games, and this https://www.cwhemp.com are the things that keep me in pursuit of happiness. Though I'm totally in pain and carrying the hurt until I find my version of success.
