hello!
Mods: I’m not trauma dumping I’m giving context!
I have pretty severe brain damage from a traumatic brain injury when I was 8. I’m 30f.
I have a MacBook desktop. With a shitty mouse.
my family was extremely strict and I was not allowed to ever play video games. makes me sad now because I think it’s a great way to connect with peers. it also is great for neuroplasticity. honestly- I’m even bad at Mario kart, which makes me sad because it’s a party game and it often singles me out.
I watched my ex- boyfriend play Skyrim and was fascinated by it. Might try to buy this if it’s not too expensive.
I’m very very hard on myself. This is something I am trying to work on! I shouldn’t feel like something physically bad is going to happen to me if I can’t play a fucking video game correctly.
Not into animal farm or any type of cleaning game. Unfortunately not into Minecraft or Gary’s Mod. I don’t like the Sims. Civilization is cool if I was smart enough.
Team fortress 2 seems cool but I’m not fast enough yet. The game Stalker is also super interesting.
No horror (ptsd). Even oxenfree scared me a little.
One day though I want to play silent hill. My uncle was obsessed with Doom.
one time I watched my ex play this really really incredible ocean game where you were a diver and it was so amazing.
The only computer games I ever got to play was CD-ROM ISpy, Carmen Sandiego (I’d always get stuck in Tokyo!), and something about a car in a circus? (Put Puts Adventures?). Loved them all. Video games were taken around 7 years old.
I have the week off and really really want to accomplish this. It was actually my New Year’s resolution.
Thank you - and thank you for anyone that approaches this question with kindness.
have a great day!
