You always need a balance. I don't think purely working (and thus probably overworking yourself) will do much to alleviate your depression. If anything, it might make it worse. I'm not really one to talk tho, i play sc2 way too much lol. Gl in life

Instead of removing SC you could focus on controlling your urges, which will help you with other things in life as well.
Wishing you well.

Dang yo, that sucks. Hope you visit once in a while. well, you know the saying, all things come to an end... it was just a matter of time for you. i hope you luck in the future, and once you do have time later on, or feel like coming back, look at this blog, quote the entire thing, and remake this blog into a "returning to sc/sc2".

That takes a lot of discipline to remove the game entirely. While it does take more discipline to find the balance between work, school, and gaming, you are probably better off doing what you did. Your grades will thank you, and your future job after graduation will too. Don't listen to the garbage of how people might say you should just play a little every week because that only opens the flood gates of temptation.

I wish you the best of luck and hope that someday you might be able to come back to the game.

SC2 is frustrating and time-consuming. Good on you for being able to discard this great evil. Best wishes.
