The fact that you can be too tired to play video games should be a crime. be it just exhausted or just tired enough that you just can't for some reason. And it's just sitting behind a computer 🥹

Yesterday I wanted to level up my Diablo character some more but I was too tired after work to even hold a controller, so I ended up paying my 8-year-old $5 to play for me. I guess that makes him a professional gamer?
It's a common phenomenon, you only have a certain amount of mental energy as well as your daily physical energy. Choosing a game requires a bit of that energy also (like browsing netflix indefinitely) and a commitment to spending time on it, which subconsciously you're not feeling capable of.
My favourite is when I get the ADHD paralysis where I can't start doing anything so I'm just sitting there looking at every game in my steam library, saying, "nah, nah, nope, no..." and becoming increasingly nervous that I'm going to sit there like that until bedtime.
Lmao why is this one so familiar to me... I'm just like pls i wanna play something but it's not happening for some reason. And then there is this phenomenon where I think 2 hours is too short so I don't start anything either. Like huh? 🤣

But of course some days even when I’m not at my desk it just takes that little bit too much energy to play a game even if it’s a relaxing one
