I don't play those games, but if they give your relief, that is an awesome outlet. I like to take walks for some relief, or go for a run. Also, watching movies helps me.

That's great! I'm also planning on starting short walks.I have been delaying it for a while since I'm currently in my "hermit" mode due to the sudden ocd flare up.

@LydiaK - I like to think that I can go for walks even when I feel like a hermit. You can stay in your own world but still get the fresh air. For me the fresh air and movement is always a game changer.

Yes! Minecraft is fun, especially with friends, and I've been into Sheltered lately as well (think Sims, but apocalyptic). Solitaire (and its rpg companion, Solitairica) is nice if I need something mindless but a little challenging, and Phasmophobia straddles the line between hilarious and terrifying. Sometimes I also play psychological stuff if I'm in a grim mood, like Layers of Fear.

Minecraft's a classic and I've played sheltered before! It's a great way to keep yourself busy, rather calming. I've heard of layers of fear, I'm gonna try it soon. I'm a sucker for horror games lol

I hated video games until my theme changed to TOCD and I started to avoid watching TV (which was an old outlet for my health ocd). Now I started playing Fortnite (😖*cringed a little admitting that*) and Enter the Gungeon which is actually pretty fun

@compulsion5000 Oh now i understand. I always had it in my mind as "resident evil 8". Lady Dimitrescu is what first came to my mind😂

@LydiaK I like it because it doesn't take itself too seriously. I didn't like 7 because it was wY too real

@compulsion5000 I can feel you on that, i mean, if we wanted a taste of realism we wouldn't play games in the first place

@LydiaK I'm glad you brought up video games I love playing. If you liked resudent evil 4 I think you will really like the village it evokes that same rustic/ folk horror charm. I think it might be my new favorite soon.

I completely immersed myself in Horizon Zero Dawn for several months last winter and it really helped to relieve anxiety and gave me a break from over thinking.

That's great! It's amazing how helpful games can be during difficult times.
