Anyone carry around a handheld even if you might not play it? (alien.top)

This might sound weird but I always like taking a handheld with me when I go to work or go out for a while in general. It helps with my anxiety knowing I can play a game to calm me down even if it’s just for like 20 minutes in the bathroom. My favorites to carry are a 3DS, switch, or vita.

It sounds like you have a very, very real gaming addiction

Even if you're not playing, if being detached from a way to game scares or makes you anxious, you really need to check in with your coping strategies and ability to face the real world.

Put down the handheld. I'm not sure you realize how disturbing this post is.

Where did you get your psychology degree, Toilet University?

Are you posting on lemmy? Sounds like you've got a social media addiction. I bet you even have an app for it on your phone because you can't be away from it. That's very disturbing.
