Judging on your last two threads, I think you better take some time off from the site and reflect on the choices you've made and think about where you're headed. You clearly have some things to work through and I assure you that video games are not the cause of your issues. Also, this is a really shitty thread.

I already took time off this site. Most of this month and last month. I'm even thinking about those things now, as should everyone else.

You're not a sociopath or would have become one. A sociopath doesn't feel sorry for being a sociopath.

And just because someone is a psychopath or sociopath doesn't mean he'll become a criminal. Although the likelyhood of becoming one increases.

There's nothing wrong with taking pleasure in hurting other people. You just need to find a good outlet for those feelings. S&M is a good example or boxing... I.e nothing illegal.

Every time I see a girl cry for example I can't help but sadistically smile at it. Probably an awful thing to admit, but I don't care lol.

You are in trouble because I never saved you.

It's probably an exacerbator of underlying psychoses rather than a cause. The fact that you had / have a problem with something non-game related (porn) shows that gaming was not a primary or even leading cause of your fundamental psychological state. But if you feel gaming makes your state of mind worse then you shouldn't game. Just like alcoholics shouldn't drink.
