I was addicted to

I think the most difficult thing right now is to select a topic for writing content from read.cash. Because if you can select a topic, writing an article is not very difficult. By the way, since the read.cash platform is trending about writing about addiction to various aspects of our life, I also thought of writing something about my past and present life addiction.

I was addicted to different things before, even now. There is a different story behind every addict. Three to four different articles can be written about them. But four or five years ago, I was addicted to something that changed my future. Today I will talk about how much I was addicted to Clash of Clans games.

I bought a new mobile phone when I was admitted to college after finishing school life. Although I have never used a smart phone before. But before I bought a smartphone, I used to feel addicted to video games. After buying a smartphone with 1 GB of RAM, I download about 10 to 15 different online and offline games on that mobile. After buying a smartphone, I became so addicted to mobile games that I did not pay much attention to any other subject, especially reading.

One of my cousins ​​is 8 years younger than me. He himself was addicted to video games and had a PC for playing video games. Every Eid when he would come to our house, he would tell me about various interesting games. That's how one of them came to our house in this country and told me about the Clash of Clans games. He teaches me how to play Clash of Clans game with strategy. From then on the game started attracting me in a different way than other things. I was fascinated by the various features including various town hall updates, new troops, attack strategy, troop leveling up, clan war.

I have been playing the game continuously for almost a year. At one point I became so addicted to the game that I spent about seven to eight hours a day on the game. Which would have wasted my study time. At one time I was the leader of a clan, and I had to stay overnight to carry out all the responsibilities of that clan. Although it wasn't compulsory, the addiction to the game kept me awake all night. It took me about a year to do Clan Level 1 to 8. The exam is very close, but I don't know anything about studying.

In such a situation, a lot of frustration started working inside me. I stopped playing games, all the members from the clan started taking leave. However, then nothing else comes, because if I do not do well in the exam, my studies will end. But it is very difficult to get rid of an addiction to something. When the exam started in a few days, I would play the game in the middle of the exam. The result is a very bad result at the end of the test. The Clash of Clans games are responsible for this bad result and I and my family all understand very well. I was banned from using the phone by my family. But if there is an addiction, it is difficult to stay 5 minutes without it. So I started playing games secretly, but I was forbidden to play games. Because in a few days I have to take the university admission test. I have to study for about 8 to 10 hours a day to pass that exam, that is, to get a chance in university.

My family, relatives are pressuring me to stay away from mobile addiction. At one point my family began to put a lot of pressure on me because they realized I was playing secret games. I kept making mistakes and couldn't get rid of the game addiction. So I threw the smartphone I bought in my life on the wall and broke the mobile, because that was the solution. It cost me $ 80 to buy the mobile. But the result of breaking the mobile was not very good.

I'm was addicted to the game, and I'm emotionally broken for not being able to play the game. As a result, after hundreds of attempts, I did not get admission in any university in the first year. But later I was able to get rid of my addiction to games by not using my smart phone anymore. The next year, when I had the last chance to take the university entrance exam, I would concentrate on studying for about 9 hours a day. Which made me successful, which is why I am currently studying at a prestigious university in my country. But right now I'm attracted to more and more different things. Which, of course, made the video an overnight sensation. I will try to present them nicely later.

Thank you for reading, hope you like it.
