Agree, playing games can reduce stress but playing too much or being addicted can also give you more stress instead. I'm completely agree with your article, yet I don't do this thing that I agree on. Instead of playing games to relief stress, I usually do another stuff to relief my stress and then play games when I feel relaxed already. Sounds wrong isn't it? lol
Absolutely not! Everyone is completely different and I'm glad that this works well (I assume it works well) for you. Maybe you enjoy the types of games that are more invigorating and adrenaline-fueled, so that being in a relaxed state when you start is much more beneficial :D, thanks for your perspective!
