Hi HN! I am a former video game addict who searched for help online and found none. When I shared my story in a blog post I heard from thousands of others asking for help, and decided to create a community for all of us to support each other: Game Quitters.

We have hundreds of resources, inspiring stories, free tools to find new hobbies, and community support. 99% of the website is free with a few reasonable paid programs with structured step-by-step guides and additional bonuses.

Happy to answer any questions you may have. :)

I flagged this post because the last entry of the quiz requires users to enter their email to receive results. Please don't do that.

According to HN guideline, you shouldn't comment about flagging a submission.

What makes spending lots of time on your "new hobbies" less problematic than your old hobby of gaming?
