That's really rough and i wish you all the strength in the world and ofc that all keeps on going well.Gonna need at least a good hour of gaming time today to de-stress; it's time for my next routine scan.
To cut a long story short, I had cancer in 2019-2020, and while treatment was successful, I have to get a CT scan every four months and a full body PET/CT/MRI every year for the next 7 years to make sure it doesn't come back.
All my scans since it was removed last April have come back clean, but I still get so incredibly anxious every time I have to get them, and for me gaming is a great source of comfort, escapism, and stress relief.
My Switch has been an extremely valuable companion over the last two years.
And yes I agree gaming can be a great escape.
