I’m someone who’s quite advanced in the game, 21 years old, stopped counting after 100 laycount, it’s far beyond that, I’ve been with many 9s and 10s, pulled threesomes and orgies, had success 99% from night game and online, as well as some LTRs.

Over the summer I was reading several hours a day, stopped reading about game and seduction as I had almost entirely figured it out, and deleted dating apps.

I got back to uni today and downloaded tinder and bumble, after 5 minutes on the app, my breathing is shortened, I have tightness in my chest, my attention span is shorter, and I have a compulsion to go out and game and close hot girls.

I want to go read my book, but my mind is racing, I can’t focus on anything else, over the summer I was able to be very present to the now, and relax enjoy the moment. But the apps triggered a compulsion, I can’t relax until I’m balls deep in a hot girl, then the second after I know I will be thinking about going back out to close more hot girls.

Gaming is an addicting, I had forgotten about it and was finally able to live my life, but now I have this compulsion to keep going. That feeling of progression of going from 6s to 7s, then you get to a point where pulling one 10 feels like a failure. The game is a never ending rabbithole.

I will try meditation and deep breathing to try to remedy this so that I can keep reading my books and enjoying life. Anyone else with a similar problem?
