I Like to Play Video Games

Could be PTSD, but I swear that games give me heightened anxiety. It's lessened a bit. I love games with lots of action or shooting, but sadly it takes me a good month to help the anxiety ease up, and I'm still battling my emotions a bit😓

Do you have PTSD?

@boklenholley7 Past trauma yeah.My abuser used to get mad at me whenever he played games with me.Cause I would mess up.
So then he would beat me or worse.
I think the games get my adrenaline going, and its hard for me to act normally.

@boklenholley7 Multiplayer is hard because of what he did too.

@SereneSun that would suck. Doesn't sound like PTSD but you definitely need to heal. Could try a beta blocker when you play. Might unlearn the fear response.
