Thanks for sharing. As a mom with an adult son who is now 14 months detoxed from gaming, I can't say enough about how much exercise played a huge part in getting into recovery and continuing it with success for my son. It not only helps with keeping his heart healthy but also gives him the dopamine high he was addicted to with gaming. He is still working hard at keeping the balance as his work in in a maintenance software company doesn't provide the needed movement and cardio. He uses a kneeling chair at work and outside of work he does running, table tennis, and martial arts. It's so important for everyone to find this kind of balance for both heart health and healthy mental health in this tech driven world.
