Can you still play games when you feel low?

[XSGames]

I can't, I grab my guitar instead and play some slow melodies

[Heitor Villa-Lobos]

If I feel *too* low, I do the same.

Sometimes I've pushed myself into playing (having fun) in some way even with my seretonine and dopamine depleted. I read it helps.

results become worse and it's easier to become tilted, so probably not really. however, with different emotional states it is possible to start appreciating different games, modes, other details, those you usually don't notice or don't pay much attention to.

[Crazy Tiger]

Yes, I have some games that I can always fall back on.

When I am going through depression or chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia flare up, which I unfortunately go through often, I tend to not even feel like playing video games. What actually helps me get by a lot of the time is snuggling my cats and even my pet chickens.

I prefer to get a massage, but do you knw whats better than a massage?

No, I have to find more destructive things to do.

[Volfogg]

There is no "when" or choice in this matter in my case. It is a constant state of my mind.

[Elegance ♠]

yeah i find its pretty soothing, i dont play games like CS2 or TF2 when i am low cause playing them just makes it worse tbh.

[ʙᴜɴ.ᴇ]

I usually just play piano.

or play something easy going and single player.

Yes, I can... it keeps me calms down, & gives me a chance to breathe,
& isolates me from the problems... It works, too...

When Video Games suck, though?

Video Games will only frustrate you, & you can't stay calm & resolve your problems...

That is the problem...

Can't keep a gamer girl down. >:3

[Grendalcat]

Sure. It's a good way to distract from whatever is unsettling.
