So my entire life has been extreme boredom, followed by finding a book/videogame/hobby I find interesting, doing nothing but that for awhile, then never touching it again.
I’m debating maybe trying to make a rule of not doing something two days in a row. Like I just found a video game I liked and played it all day yesterday and today, and while I still wanna play I already feel its shininess wearing off.
Curious if anyone else has tried to space out their dopamine buttons and if it helped. So maybe like instead of just playing the same game tomorrow, I’ll need to try other games, or maybe try to find a new book series to hyper focus on…
I’d like to hear how it turns out.
I rarely get a chance to spend hours paying games anymore, and when I finally do get the chance, I can’t ever decide what I want to get into. I’m definitely better off focusing on one thing and milking it dry until something else grabs me. My son will flip through games for 15-30 minute intervals. He’ll start up a new Fallout playthrough, shoot some things, and next time I turn around, he’s fighting a boss in Elden Ring.
