When you spend more time in counter-strike competitive looking in the pc window than playing the game...

 

Or maybe I'm just bad?

Intel i7 4770k @4.5ghz, Asus Maximus VI Formula, Asus Geforce GTX 780, Corsair h100i, Corsair Neutron GTX 240gb, WD Black 1tb, Corsair 750D, Corsair AX860i w/ Sleeved Cables.


I rarely leave the build logs section.

You know your Obsessed when:

  • Your PC has a name.
  • It cost more than your first car.
  • Color is extremely important.
  • You have days on your calendar set to "Drain WC'ing" or "Dust PC"
  • When your budget looks like - PC, food, rent, utilities, girlfriend.

Mate, I've done that also. Being on your PC is way more entertaining then laying in bed (even if you need to). :D

Isn't it! I do this every time! The only reason I had to stop was because the entire screen became a blur so it was kind of impossible to use the computer anyways. 2 hour nap and I'm back up and running.

I get quite nervous when I have to stay away from my main rig for extended periods of time (ie business travel).

 

Every time I look at my laptop, on a travel, it saddens me. LoL

I'm feeling much better. My brain doesn't feel like it's going to break out of my skull anymore ^^ 

Was really that last game of League of Legends that put the real strain on my eyes, headache is pretty much completely gone after the nap.

Oh, you must've felt pretty rotten. Sorry to hear that. I'm glad your headache is pretty much gone. Headaches are just annoying and painful. No good can come from a headache.

The first step is admitting you have a problem. Well done! :P

Sounds almost like me.

 

But there's something wrong...

There. Fixed it.  :lol:

Never trust my advice. Only take any and all advice from me with a grain of salt. Just a heads up.

Well, it makes that Tinnitus that I have for over 2 month now somewhat bearable cause it's a decent distraction so it's extremely important right now. I neither can bear too loud nor too quiet so gaming/youtube videos is the only thing I can do right now for an extended period of time - I tried music but that is sensory overkill for my ears no matter how loud. Lucky it's gotton a bit better so that I can ride my bike for about an hour but after that my ears are starting to hurt from the street noise but it's better than nothing. So, yeah, my PC basically keeps me going at the moment.
