Video Game Therapy

There's more to video games than meets the eye. In fact, playing online games can actually help improve your mental health! In this video I share 5 different strategies you can use to improve your mental wellbeing while gaming. Who knew?

A return to more unscripted.
Mostly a hybrid, I am trying to work on my productivity flow and pacing :]

Since scripted content didn't quite work out as well for me! 

How a a fleeting moment in Final Fantasy Endwalker made me deep dive into generational Trauma

An unscripted reflection of self-growth and mental health. Self-Discipline is hard, especially when you don't have the proper support structures to help cultivate growth in those areas. Learning to work with my personal chaos until I can form stronger routines that cultivate long-term prosperity.

Just keeping everyone up to date with my current affairs and how I intend to move forward!
While not the best start of the year, it is definitely a way to shake things up.
Going to try crossfit, group therapy for LGTBQ+ individuals, continue hypno therapy, and continue to find a therapist who can specialize in a case like me.
This year is going to be a new positive adventure.

I shall also be transitioning into more scripted content!

Was just feeling loving and appreciative of the fact that FFXIV has givin me so much

A quick rant about mentors and toxic players.
The whole mentor program needs a bit of a rework.
Anyone person casually playing a tank or healer can easily get enough commendations to become a mentor.

The story itself is quite cathartic, but also evocative emotionally.
However, when we start looking at the threads of fate we start to understand that everything in game in done with particular aspect and perspectives in mind.
My personal take is that Trauma is one of the underlying themes.
Then once we understand that, it helps us truly work through some of those experiences. 

A long winded, Urianger length conversation about the Role of healers in Final Fantasy 14

I am just furious about the average player base base and the player base who are just creating this negative onslaught of comments and dynamics

I was have a full on conversation with myself while I was in the shower and thought I should record it

I don't think this needs a decription. 

Practice makes perfect

I didn't post last week because I was emotionally in a dark place than I intended to be. So upon recording, i realized I I didn't feel it was necessary to share the emotional venom I was committing to saying.

this week, I feel significantly better and decided to share

hard to put words to thought when thoroughly and sufficiently distracted and exhausted 

a brief summary of what it is like to have unhealthy gaming habits from a personal and objective perspective

Exploring the conversation of Gender Identity and Expression through video games.
If people understood what non-binary meant, they would realize they are more on the spectrum than they realize.
It is not meant to force a new identity, but illuminate some of the darkness we face it comes to having a healthy conversation about the topic

Was feeling a bit overwhelmed and exhausted from taking care of My Mother.
So thought it would be best to put the puzzle together as to why it is such an emotionally charged and evocative experience.  
When you are have your own obstacles and dances with mental illness, it's not nearly as easy to have a healthy or functional relationship with someone who has their own mental illness.

However, it is best to understand them and take windows of opportunity to maximize effectivity and efficiency without overburdening yourself

A Random Side Quest evoked a lot more emotions and truly touched on what it means to handle death.
Immersive storytelling and reflection.
