[QUOTE="fba827, post: 302731, member: 807"] Hmm.. Frequency: how often do you play? once a week? once a month? Perhaps (in conjunction with other things) when/if you do start playing again, don't play so frequently! Thus, giving you a couple weekends (or whatever) inbetween to go out hiking, biking, swimming, or playing ball or whatever it is you want to do. Variation: Perhaps when/if you do start playing again, try some of these variations: * try and be the player * try getting with a different group of people so that you're in a different environment (not that you have to get rid of your friends by any stretch, just try a get together with other folks) * try joining a play by email game (though, this focuses more on story telling and role playing than actual combat since combat in play by emails sometimes takes weeks or longer to resolve ;-) ) again.. all this is just under the idea of using the same game but just offering you some mental variations Take a break: I find I actually take breaks once in a while and maybe just make some of this stuff my late night reading material. It puts ideas in my head or i'll jot ideas down. It's just a different way to enjoy the information. Play a board game outside on a nice day. Find other outlets of activity to do with the same group of people. Bottom line - it's a game, you're supposed to be enjoying yourself. If you're not, try to see why not and make changes. If need be, take a break. If you miss it, you'll come back to it sometime. If not, well, then not. hmm.. well, lots of this has already been said by others in this thread. these are just my rambles.
