Forums - Gaming - What was the longest streak of non gaming days?

So I left my PS5 in the Philippines since June 30,

Lived in Australia for 3.5 month ish so far!

I have the Switch with me but for reasons unknown I just coudn't be bothered booting it up lol.

I also haven't been gaming as much since June 15 ish,

I've found a new addiction in TikTok of all places.

I just wanna know how long has it been since you last played a video game?

1 days

3 weeks

Welcome to Australia! :) Hope you're enjoying your time here so far.

Back in 2011 I fucked up my arm really bad in an accident and the tendon to my thumb was cut so I couldn't use my left hand for around 3 months, including for gaming. Had to keep it dry too, so had to wear a old bread bag on my arm when I showered haha

It was torture trying to last that long without gaming as if I am honest I am a little bit addicted to it, as it is my source of comfort and escapism when I'm stressed, which is almost every day as I have a really bad anxiety disorder. 

Nowadays, I reckon I'd struggle to get through a week without gaming unless I absolutely had to.



I’d reckon probably a long time being that I didn’t really start gaming until 2017. But in recent memory? I had a period between the start of June and the launch of Splatoon Raiders where I couldn’t play anything due to travelling home to see family.



Every time I do a big trip in another part of Japan, I have a big gaming cleanse. Can feel really lonely, especially when traveling by myself, but by the end of the trip I am always glad I did.



I don't know. I basically don't play anything at all, except when I'm on vacations. I can't focus starting a gameplay when I have stuff from my job to worry about

I just played Kirby and the Forgotten Land this morning. But in all fairness I can easily go months without gaming. I don't think I ever had a year-long pause since I started playing games (roughly 32 years ago) but I can easily go months. I love games, but I often don't have the time or the mood for them.

I feel the same way,

Games erased the loneliness in my heart but now its coming back again,

Need to "console" myself lol

Around 3-4 years in college. Between, school, Cross Country, Track and Field, part time job, and partying/dating, I didn't really play back than.
