Videogames is a form of games. Every game you play will help during bad times. Racing? Puzzles? Story? Competition? Social? Is it really that surprising that Videogames CAN help with mental health during bad times?

It's not that it's surprising, it's that it's somewhat scientifically confirmed now.

I wish this was possible back when I played Overwatch 1 and 2. But people reported me because I was not responding back.

It's amazing what having the potential of ownership ripped away can do.
