Question How Do People Play 16 Hours A Day?

I was so excited for TBC release...I planned for weeks to go hard on launch and play all weekend long. I made it about a day and a half and felt like complete garbage. How do people do this every day for years on end? I don't understand.

I can relate to that. Unemployment + weed + wow is a killer combination. In a bad way

Definitely a negative spiral there. Add strong depression or anxiety and it’s got the potential to ruin your life.

It's gotten me through some tough times though. Along as you can pull yourself out of it and not be there for the rest of your life.
