I am addicted
not addicted.

Build a support networkEnded up building a server network instead. Close enough.
Talk about my feelingsIn /msg. Feelings: "gg".
Set healthy limitsSet world border to 10,000 blocks. Very limited.
Touch grassPlaced 64 grass blocks. Touched every one of them.
Identify my triggersCreepers. Mostly creepers.
Find a healthy hobbyServer administration. Totally different from gaming.
Make amendsRebuilt the house the creeper blew up.
Practise mindfulnessAFK fishing for 3 hours. Very calm.

// questions

Frequently asked questions

Asked frequently. Mostly by family members.

Are you addicted to gaming?

No. I can stop whenever I want. I just don't want to. That's different.

Isn't playing Minecraft in a gaming program a bit… counterproductive?

I don't make the rules. I just host them on a dedicated server.

Is this website a cry for help?

No. It's a cry for players. The IP is notgameaware.xyz.

Why did you buy a domain for this?

Commitment to recovery. You wouldn't understand.

What version is the server?

Check the live status at the top of the page — it pulls straight from the server.

Can I join?

Yes. Recovery is better with friends. Copy the IP and hop on.
