yay minecraft world! i was always vulnerable to the 2 week phase, but my current world is about 2? 3? years old? i think the biggest thing that helped me was 1 - making it a server with friends, and 2 - putting a new build technique in every build. i can do a lot more now, my builds are cooler and i have more fun building. i love minecraft :)

hi snails 👋🖤 i love your personal blog greatly and so happy you share your thoughts with the world, it's great to see! I have PTSD and anxiety attacks too and it's comforting to see I'm not alone

I guess games can be so comforting because they have clear rules and require a certain amount of concentration, so whenever you're playing, you rewire your brain for the situation, and that means that anxiety can go to the background...psychology is interesting to think about!

*note, when I've said anxiety attacks I means "anxiety, anxiety attacks and panic attacks"

thank you for reading - I'm truly so glad this was comforting to you because it was a little scary to write. Ive been dealing with panic/anxiety attack my whole life and it can be so debilitating. I hope sharing my thoughts and experiences helps you as much as it helps me too <3 I also wrote this in part because I thought it was so interesting after discovering video games as a means to cope haha.
