baited with the idea that moderation is possible with some lame mindset guru stuff.

It's not bait. Moderation is possible. I did it.

Gaming isn't the same as alcohol or drugs. It's not a drug. Any addiction can be negative but in most cases gaming won't actually harm your body like alcohol or drugs do. Some people on here aren't actually as addicted as others.

This post would have helped me immensely when I started moderating gaming, that's all I wanted to say. Just because it didn't help you doesn't mean it doesn't help someone else. Not everyone has to go the same path and completely quit gaming. No one's making you read the post. Don't read it and don't moderate your addiction if you don't want to. You're your own person.
