GameRager: That's odd....but seriously....try being ME for a day on Gog or the entire net! I have to usually read all or MOST(70% and up) of a thread's posts before I can post, to make sure I get all the posts and replies in before making a reply. Damn this bloody noggin of mine. :(

Fever_Discordia: Do you ever find the time to actually PLAY your GOGs?
I have like 20 GOGs backlogged and not installed but all the files are archived(and updated when the game's files are updated.), 10-15 installed(and sorta played), and a fukton of other games installed and in various states of completion.

Cuz of my ocd any game which is too open or choice loaded(Assassin's Creed as a new example, Baldur's Gate 2 as an older one) is hard for me to play quickly as there are too many detials for me to process at once mentally.

I'm suprised that it doesn't make you play one game at a time untill completeion almost non-stop though! I'm no psycologist though...

If it gets too hard I stop and play something else that's easier on my mental state.

Also some GOGs I played as a lad and thus I can play them easier. And some are new to me but feature narrow corridors and easy interfaces which I can mentally "handle".

For some reason my OCD changes over the years, with some symptoms going and coming quickly or slowly. Some symptoms i've had for years some only a few months. It's odd it is, but it's how I live sadly. Medicines help me muchly though.

GameRager: Lol but what if you HAVE to read everything like me, or others with my OCD? ;)

It's a headache I tells ya.
Ya never know, man - you might've missed a freebee in the Gaming Deals thread that is still out there and available right now. XD

OCD I imagine is pretty difficult. I overcame chronic depression and then fell into paranoid anxiety. The only thing that kept me from achieving the label of 'Schizophrenic' was that I'm laid back and level headed enough to remain rational.

To this day I view the world like a conspiracy author and reality to me is perceived as undefined but I still manage to cope happily.

The good thing about mental illness is that it doubles as mental exercise to keep you sharp and keep you thinking - I believe that unless you suffer from actual brain damage that there is a way to either get past or learn how to control and manage most disorders.
