Easing Off Destiny 2: A Small Post to Try and Help Players That are Addicted to the Game

Got a crippling addiction to Destiny 2, like I do, but are upset that the game isn't valuing your time? With the recent introduction and now full view that Sunsetting is bad for the game, I've found myself in a habitual addiction to Destiny 2 where I don't play it out of fun anymore; I play it out of habit. And it's rather dull, makes me hate myself, not feeling my time is valued, etc. [b]I WILL NOTE:[/b] This is not for players who are still enjoying their time in the game. You're not wrong to enjoy the game. This is intended for players, like myself, who find themselves in a love/hate relationship, cripplingly addiction, or habitual relationship with Destiny 2. I'd say seek a therapist, but I'm not sure most of us can afford one. So I've discovered a simple method: Step #1.) Find two to four other games that value your time more than Destiny and take small breaks away from Destiny 2 to play those other games. You can still come back to Destiny 2, but it'll start yourself easing off of Destiny 2. Throughout the following week, keep doing this. Step #2.) During the next week, start to play those games before going to Destiny 2. I don't recall if I consciously made this choice, but I know I'd often select my other games to play for a bit first before going to Destiny 2. For me, those two games have been: Genshin Impact, Titanfall 2, and occasionally Rocket League. I have some other games I could play, but my interest varies. Obviously not everyone will have the same taste in games. Step #3.) The third week, try and not play Destiny during select days you would normally play the game. While this is the stage I am currently at, I find myself quite happy and not as depressed as I usually am while playing other games. Destiny has currently taken a backseat in my current gaming library. And honestly, I've never felt better. - A little story if you care to read: A day ago I sold my friend my PS4 and various games, since he was looking for a PS4. He bought Shadow of Colossus specifically for the occasion, as he really enjoys single player experience games. And even as a backseat gamer to him while he played, I found myself intrigued by the game. I had fun helping him find solutions to take down the Colossi. Colossuses? Whatever. And it's moments like these where I realize..."Damn. There are other games out there that actually value my time/have good stories/keep me invested". I talk about it often, especially when -blam!- about Destiny 2. That's what I always seem to do when talking about Destiny 2, and I've grown to loath myself for it. Step #4.) So....like I said in the previous step, I am at #3, so I'm not sure what I'll do next. Maybe I'll just stay at #3, because I'm enjoying what I am doing currently. Perhaps I'll update this post should my habits differentiate even more than they had previously. I will state again, this isn't me ragging on D2 anymore. I just don't find I enjoy my time, it's not respected, etc. It's not what I want from D2. This post is intended to help players in a similar state that I am. And I hope this helps, even a little. I'm not a licensed therapist able to help players work out their problems or right click-bait articles about why you're addicted to Destiny 2. But I do think this is just something I should share. I just sort of treat it like I would if I had a Tabaco addiction. Just didn't quit cold turkey. I'm going to see what kind of games I missed during my time with Destiny 2. As a working college student, Destiny 2 has consumed all my game time up until recently. I'm on PC, got any good recommendations to check out?
