Destiny may have saved my life.

Hello bungie community. This might sound laughable, but to me it was very serious.. I am 20 years old, recently got out of a 2 year relationship with an angel. We did literally everything together. She was my first true love I coulden't stand having away from my side..I was totally twitterpated. This woman cheated on me thrice times and I didin't care I loved her soooo much. She induced self harm thoughts in my head and her own, she'd play mind games with me. Yet I swear on my heart she was all I loved, she was perfect. Well finally one day she left me for some younger punk dude and they both blocked me, and removed me from their life. I was so devastated, I couldent stop hurting myself. I felt no reason to live. But you know what? Destiny was right around the corner. I bought it. I played it day and night. I loved it. I sunk so many hours into grinding up to 30 in vanilla and I had a blast! I refused to think of my ex while playing. This game takes my mind off depression, anxiety and throws me in a well crafted pit of gameplay. My point is, this amazing game was my crutch to heal for the past year. With all my suicidal thoughts finally fading, I cant thank bungie and the community enough for making this awesome game. It may have saved me when I had nothing but regret.. As for now, I'll keep my eyes up. I hope you enjoyed my story. Oh and no I don't give a shit about fate of all fools I need the jade rabbit x.x *edit* Very much appreciate the kind words from all of you. This game, and community, is gold. May the light always be with you against the dark Guardians. *edit 2* I had too, you all are so amazing. I've been on all day grinding my heart out to hit 300 light for the raid to be ready, and I had to pause and read all this again. I feel so damn good now today and I was feeling down earlier. You guys made my night. Edit 3* This is totally offtopic, does anyone want to raidon xbox one? I'm socially awkward and too anxious for lfg..298 light, never set foot in there.. *edit 4* Yes I should have left her after the first time she cheated on me. Dudes. She was free spirited, she probably cheated on me more than three times. I still didin't care. I stated earlier she had me under a spell. I'd never had somone live with me for years before I met her. I really loved this girl. Yeah, I've learned from my mistakes. *edit 5* Now this I didin't want to make..but, I love you guys and please.. You can chill with the "Pfft I woulda left after the first time. This is Fake". I'm Sorry but not sorry that you have never experienced what true love and trust is. Two of my female friends are hardcore swingers and dont even consider breaking up even after watching their partner love somone else. Everyone has their limits. I had high limits. She could have taken my money for video games to buy makeup shes been dying for, even wreck my car. I woulden't drop her like that man..Someday you'll find somone who you feel that way towards, because everyone eventually -blam!-s up, and maybe you wont have what happened to me happen to you :) And you guys can shove your exotics up your ass. I'll earn my own. This was indeed half sob story and half (look this game is good and helped me). Thats it. Nothing more. Nothing less. I dont want your jelly donut fart fate of all fools. Seriously. Some of you are beyond arrogant but I still love you. I wrote this story when I woke up because I was bored.

  • My story is similar to yours. I dated a guy for only about 8 months, but before that I had dated a few other douchbags. I had been cheated on by those guys and before my recent ex, I took a full 2 years off of dating because I was feeling vulnerable and I couldn't trust. So when my ex came along, I was obviously in a high state and going through the honeymoon stage again. I learned to trust him and he helped me with that, knowing my past. Then after about 5 months he started cheated on me. Cheating in any way immediately breaks me, after being hurt several times in the past, it really hit home this time. I had never had Anxiety before and it hit like a ton of bricks, I fell into depression and I couldn't even socialize with my friends. I did not have suicidal thoughts, but I sat alone in my room for days. It came to a point where I couldn't go to work because that was where I met him and all his friends and family go there so just seeing them made me break down. I had to take 4 months off of work. The day I took the medical leave, it was October 6th. I knew Destiny had come out in September, so I bought myself an Xbox One and Destiny. (I still remember the day) When I got into playing this game, everything I felt started to go away, I didn't think about my ex, my anxiety and depression were going away. I played Destiny non stop, it made me feel good. I met some awesome people that helped me through my time, listened to me when I explained why I was on Destiny ALL the time and showed compassion. I met 5 guys on Destiny who were all from the same Province I live in, one of which I'm dating currently. :). We are all pretty good friends now and I do thank Bungie for making this game. Gaming has been a huge part of my life, but Destiny pulled me out of my dark days and I found a very loving BF who has the same interests as me. We've been dating since January. He even bought me a Destiny Ice cream cake.
