I am in denial. I cannot face reality. I escape to this COH game and pretend the world does not exist. I want to be actually inside a video game!!!

I hate the world I live in. Just leave me alone. I went to the intervention and everyone just sat there not saying anything. I dont know, maybe they dont like me.

Finallly my sister spoke up and said I need help, probably need to see a doctor. I slammed the door as I ran off and said you people dont know what you're talking about!!!

I mean , they have no idea what its like to CONTROL a superhero. They have no ideal Its very addicting to play GOD

Well, I just had a huge argument with a few of my friends. They are telling me I need help. I'm like so what if I only get out two or three times a month, I like this game.

I'm determined to have another level 50 superhero. My friends told me that I must be psychotic to want to stay inside and play this game.

All I know is this: Time is the only thing keeping me from reaching my goal, to get another level 50 superhero. I'm so focused on that, maybe I cant see straight, I dont know. I dont care.

I told my friends to go away, if you dont like it then dont come back. I'll make new friends. By the way, I'm out of high school, living by myself, no social life except at work.

I'm not hurting anyone, I dont see why my relatives look at me like I'm some psycho. I may skip that intervention crap.

Its almost to the point now where I have a hard time telling the differnece between real life and video games.

I am driving down the road and sometimes I get mad and want to ram the other car, like the Grand Theft Auto game and I realize that would be stupid but it almost happens.

You see my point. Its like its okay to hurt other people cuz its all a game. Life is a game to me.

The guy that died from playing for three days straight was a South Korean who was playing Everquest for like 86 hours straight I think, and that was like two years ago.

The task force missions in this game make you sit down for hours and hours at a time, sometimes eight hours straight!!!!!!

Comon, I mean aren't we all spiraling outta control when it comes to internet gaming? I think people play more than what they want others to believe.

I bet people lie about their internet activities to their family and friends and co-workers.

Its like the internet is some bad secret nobody wants to discuss. Why is the internet taboo in the united states?

We are all socially interacting with a computer so maybe my relatives have a point to my obsession with online gaming.

Eventually there will come a day when you will want a girl and you go to your computer and choose her and she pops up into your bedroom right before your eyes, just like the movie Logans Run.

I kinda maybe have that problem as well...I have plenty enough free time, but my parents seem to think that playing games during it is less useful than say, wandering around the house.

Yeah I dont get it, some people think that playing games is bad or something. There is a whoe generation of people who believe that gaming is bad.

Remember that people thought watching TV was bad. Now look at it, everyone watches TV.

It could be worse, I could be outside stealing things and getting into drugs.

My relatives and friends believe I am in a self-destructive spiral from playing City of Heroes too much and they have decided to stage an intervention just for me.

My question to you all is should I even go to this? They tell me I have an online gaming disorder. I am the only one in my family who plays a massive online game.

I think they are all wierd, they think I am wierd. I'm tired of people telling me what to do with my life. What should I do about COH?
