I have questions

[Lighthouse76]

About the OCD that are displayed in repetitive actions, like games for exemple. What is the difference between having an addiction to games and having OCD ?

I do know I was a very impulsive person but the compulsive behaviour is a much later thing. Few things really do get my attention, particularly when one is depressed for a while, like me...than when there is a spark for something that is what I will grab to release tensions, out of me.

For exemple: I find myself completely addicted to 4 games in a social net site, I go there to play hourly when possible, feeding my animals (Farm and Aquarium games). I enter my profile way more interested in the games than to chat or see what is going on with friends there or connect with people. I even forget to check scraps people leave. It seems the games interraction are way more pleasurable, easy to play, non-stressful and a great way to just relax..although I get worried and have to go there hourly to check my animals and collect my money etc.

How many of you guys are addicted to games too ?
Does depression and anxiety lead the way to compulsive behaviour in people?

Thanks.

yeah it sounds like a compulsion/obsession

but try to rest in His grace, when you have these feelings, and don't beat yourself up if you fail and act nutty like we all do on hear sometimes

I know you night not feel it when you're anxious but you have His grace and love either way
