"Go back to do what you enjoyed when you were younger". This is what I did. I back to WW2 modeling, WW2 computer games and reading. I had a good read on a book that I forgot I had ..Clay Blairs books on Hitlers U-Boat War. This gave me memory's of my very first PC game ..Silent Hunter 1. I then found and installed GWX Gold. Wow!. What a turnaround for my mental state. This game has, at this stage, gave me something that will stimulate my mind, challenge my concentration abilities and also my problem solving abilities. I feel good. So these are not "just" computer games, they can help people like me, and pull them out of a dark place and change their lives. Thank you to all the mod developers, you are doing the community a great service!!
What a lovely post to read.
i wish you the very best for the future gb027.
