My brother is deaf and he's an asshole. The deaf community is a huge ingroup, they actually gave my brother shit for having surgery to get some hearing (although still legally deaf/HoH).

I got diagnosed with mental retardation pretty early on. I can't stop playing and praising Souls games since 2009. I hate my life.

I had a neighbor lady who was deaf and she was very nice and sweet

I'm a schizoid/autist
It always hindered me to get friends but whatever, I finally unlocked my gamedev power. I will make it and fly to japan to fuck 16 year olds(LEGAL THERE DUMBFUCK JANNY).

I'm 99% sure (i'm taking part in a genetic research project thats taking way too long) i have small fiber neuropathy like my mother and it's been fucking up gaming for atleast a year now for me.
Hand pain, elbow pain, muscle weakness, pain that mimics carpal and tennis elbow but no actual fix, temporary finger numbness all stuff like that

My mother has it way way worse so i have that to look forward to.

I'm disabled. Mostly mental issues, but a couple (relatively minor but still impactful) physical ones as well.

It makes it extremely difficult to focus on the kinds of games I want to finish. Longer narrative focused games become a thing I have to hyperfixate on to get any progress in (which kills me, because they were some of my favorites when my condition wasn't too bad). Roguelikes and Roguelites became some of the only shit I can reliably play, alongside the occasional MOBA (high variance, generally low spinup time, Roguelikes I can pause or just leave running if my attention flits to something else).

It's been...rough. I want to be able to sit there and play longer experiences like I used to, but at best I manage that when the stars fucking align once every couple months.

Deaf people are assholes.

There was also a time where I had to basically crawl from the car to my room and almost passed out just from sneezing. And even though the bathroom was literally next to my room, taking a piss was a struggle. Just getting up and leaving my room took like 15 minutes.

i'm a leaf and we get basically nothing for disability support. well below the poverty line. he must have had a job as well or someone supporting him. to leave my parent's house i would need one roommate with a good job or multiple with average jobs. absolutely no way whatsoever i could live on my own with disability support alone because rent by itself would be my entire monthly allowance and low income support housing has a 10+ year long waitlist. this country and province basically expects disabled people to either leech off their family their entire life or find a roommate or spouse willing to support them massively. they basically treat the disabled like trash that should be taken out, which is insanely depressing since anyone could be in my position tomorrow after an accident. disabled people are the biggest minority group but people want to ignore them or treat them like an inconvenience. nobody will hire me and the government wants me dead so my entire life feels like an inconvenience to ny family and my country. it's all so tiresome.

I wish I had a girlfriend who was blind and/or in a wheelchair. I kinda have a fetish for disabled girls I suppose. Not for deaf people though, I wouldn't want to date a deaf girl because of my own experience with hearing impairment and having been around other deaf or partially deaf people.

There's people out there that fake injuries, fake disabilities, but you don't sound in that line. So I wouldn't think of yourself as a burden or welfare queen or any of that shit since you're in a legit line of people who actually need financial support.

I've been told to attend to therapy or group therapy to vent, but I feel the same as you. I'm good for nothing, what good is talking going to do to others? Nothing desu.

Most of the time I do not understand the story and dialogue. I only play to see numbers go up. I feel like I am missing out on a lot of great games but I can't help it.

yeah chronic pain and some limited movement in my neck. my best option would be going to college and getting a desk job but i'm legitimately pretty stupid and wouldn't know what to take or do for a career. i barely passed high school and i'm not really passionate about anything. i'm borderline retarded when it comes to math. if my injury didn't happen i'd probably be working a dead end blue collar job but all those are physical or standing, and i couldn't do a fulltime 8 hour shift. i could probably work at a call centre i guess but nobody is really hiring right now and it's always fulltime not part-time. regardless i don't really like talking about this stuff because it just makes me depressed but i hope things turn out well for you. i fully expect to be homeless before i'm 50 unless a miracle occurs in my life but i'm not hopeful.

I always like to explore every nook and cranny and experiment with game mechanics so it takes me 10x or more to finish the game compared to others. I'm not good at MP because of that so it's SP experience mostly for me.

It's made me appreciate it a lot more since it's one of the only activities I can actually do and it helps me stay awake when I need to be somewhere, but it also means I have to take really frequent breaks. I also can't buy anything since my neetbux are minimal and have to rely entirely on piracy, which sucks more than you'd expect despite how good the vidya piracy scene is.

Accounting will always have jobs, even with AI. If you're as dumb as you say, you will have to treat school like a job. Leave your place before 8 and don't return until after 5, spending the time you don't have classes revising what was just covered, doing assignments and working ahead. School starts fairly easy but still doing this will train you to start working whenever without fucking aroudn and being unable to focus and once shit gets hard you will keep afloat. Us retards have to work hard in college to make it through.

I'm always surprised to learn about people being colourblind. I always imagined it would be a bigger deal but apparently missing some colours is not as important for games as I imagined.

I'm on disability mostly for "clinical depression", so a lot of the time I don't have the urge to play games anymore or find little enjoyment in them or other hobbies. I still buy and collect since that's a dopamine hit of it's own to look forward to new sales and new games, but my Steam backlog is over 1,103 games now and I have a few hundred physical games from the last few gens that I'm never really going to play.

I've sunk a lot of time into MMOs as a result of being a homebody and try to use them to make up for the lack of socialization I'm not getting in my daily life, but it never works out and just depresses me more. I find that if I can get a lot of energy via energy drinks or caffeine / coffee, I suddenly feel great and motivated and can let my autism flow and grind with enjoyment towards a goal that otherwise just seems worthless and unfulfilling that I was working on, with my latest case being in FFXIV grinding for the Triple Triad mount where you basically do almost all the content for the first 8 years of the game's release.

It sucks since I had disability as a kid and all I wanted was to be left alone and gorge myself on vidya and gaming content, but this time as an adult and loaded on all kinds of meds I just don't have any real drive or passion most of the time and can't enjoy this endless free time to play, so nowadays I just bounce from youtube videos and sleep a lot more.

I'm experiencing this now and for the last several years, I turned to drink big time and my liver failed and almost killed me. When I came out of the ICU I got sober and tried to address my severe depression because I had stopped enjoying everything, I couldn't bear to load up games anymore.

I tried SSRIs Sertraline and then Mirtazapine which made me more tired and I had to stop, eventually after being suicidal I tried Vortioxetine which is one of the more expensive ones, it doesn't just seem to prevent reuptake or serotonin but also help produce it, so my mood has started getting better and I've literally in the last week or so started playing games again, I finished The Alters and really enjoyed it.

MMOs were the last thing that helped me before everything became awful, I played New World again from scratch to end game, and then Throne And Liberty, neither held past end game for long though, once the grind is gone it's over.

Anhedonia is very real and fucking awful, I wouldn't wish it on anyone, if you havn't speak to your doctor about it, ask for help. They may recommend an SSRI, there's a bunch they can try if one doesn't work, it's really common people have to try a few before they find one that works.

Good luck anon

im sure that if i went to a shrink (never gonna happen) they would tell me i was schizoid. im not one to self diagnose, especially based on the relatively recent uptick in schizoid discussion on mongolian leather tanning forums, but when youve fit the criteria for something for 15 or so years its kinda hard to deny. just so happens that i only recently became aware of it as a label.

I'm 30 and i have multiple sclerosis. The biggest consequence is a significantly worsened eyesight. I've had near-sightedness and astigmatism since i was 18, but before i got diagnosed it was always manageable. I regret not getting LASIK earlier, when it would have worked. There are other symptoms like numbness in my limbs and a damaged vestibular apparatus, but they're mostly irrelevant to the question.

I'm a mostly PC gamer, and i experience no issues. When I recently went to hang out with my friend who owns a PS5 though, I couldn't see shit sitting on his couch.

checks out

Getting a schizoid diagnosis is sort of pointless though because it's not really actionable anyway. At best it could turn out you (also) have something else and get that addressed, but schizoid itself is incurable. There's no meds for it and it's not responsive to therapeutic approaches because schizoids by nature are not ones to like answering personal questions and talking about themselves.

I'm on Farxiga / Prozac and that gave me a slight perk up to where I'm not just lying in bed all the time and sometimes I get up to do things around the house like some dishes or rare sweeping and stuff like that, and they also have me on Lurasidone / Latuda to help balance things so I'm not going from one extreme to another since my depression is based on bipolar from what I'm understanding, along with a few other issues most anons tend to have. I used to be on lamictal but that caused me to have crazy weight gain where I shot up 50+ pounds in a single month after a depressive episode, so now I'm on new meds to counter that and slowly working back down to a healthier weight and that's been helping a bit.

I'm hanging in there, and hoping you and other anons are as well, since depression sucks ass and isn't easy to fix even with therapy and loads of pills from my experience. Just running a bot on an MMO on one monitor while I type this up on the other since this thread interests me.

A Silent Voice emotionally destroyed me for a full week.

I'm autistic/possibly have aspergers. I fucking suck hard at puzzles and multiplayer games. I've gotten stuck on some puzzles for upwards of 30 minutes. I panic when someone shit talks me in a match to the point where my hands tremble typing out my response. I also can't handle getting yelled at on mic. I quit multiplayer games long ago because it just wasn't fun. I've been playing nothing but big budget mainstream single player games since, and it's great.

Anyone who thinks they're schizoid should go read the criteria for the other schizoid personality types. Schizotypal, Schizoid Avoidant, there are probably 10 others by now (I last read them years and years ago). Like the other person said it's basically meaningless, just people casting around looking for something that explains what they are, where they "fit", why they're "different".

It can be difficult to connect to other players in games and make friends without a mask on, but that's about it. Nowadays most people don't seem that interested in social elements of games anymore, which is a shame because I did make a lot of good friends online as a kid and still talk to some of them to this day.

Also there are plenty of happy non disabled people in Africa, Eastern Europe and whatever. Quality of life has little to do with illness or disability. Unless youre rich having a disability in a first world country doesn't necessarily mean good quality of life. Youre talking about generic quality of life which just means access to more resources, entertainment, and the type of pain relief that doesn't really require a cure.

I'm autistic and sensory overload fucks my brain so I can't play new titles, especially UE4/5 or visually chaotic ones. My limit is at MGS4/5 or Warframe level of detail, beyond that and my brain throbs, my face starts to feel heavy and my eyes flicker wildly at 300 mph in a split second before snapping back into place. I'm stuck with playing games at the lowest resolution with the lowest graphics, and sticking to older games.

I think after living with years of untreated ADHD I hit a pretty bad burnout that caused or ramped up a dissociative disorder that makes it really hard to be invested or find joy in anything. So for a while most of what I was playing was just mind-numbing shit to further take my mind off of how awful everything feels. I wouldn't bother with anything new to me since I would never be in a headspace to really appreciate it.

It's getting much better now that I'm medicated. I don't like calling it a disability but it is considered one and it can really kill you before you've ever truly lived.

Oh and hyperfocus gets me hooked on random shit whether I want it to or not. It's fun sometimes but coming out of it feels like waking up from a long night of drinking and I don't quite remember all the details.

I was "diagnosed" with "PTSD" by some doctor who makes his living prescribing people kike disorders and kike medicine.
It affects my gaming because I'm often too wore out mentally to even play vidya.
I also never play video games online.

>How does it affect you're playing of vidya?

you faggot trannies and your self diagnosed quirky disorders don't count. kill yourselves

The first two fingers on my right hand are 1cm shorter after surgery due a workplace accident. Hasn't affected things too much, mainly just how I type on the keyboard and if using the arrow keys with older games. Don't have full feeling in the ends of the fingers, so took a long time to get used to typing with with them again (lucky I never practiced touch typing).

Yeah, I have a bone disorder that causes bowing over time and I fracture easily. There are decent meds now but that's after a lifetime of pain and there's no permanent fix unless you're a child given the meds from the time you're 6 and under. It means my shoulders, arms, wrists, hands, fingers, feet, hips, low and mid back are all slightly deformed and have many small fractures that have re-fractured and built up to cause lots of small nagging injuries all over my body. I also have a few major breaks that have healed poorly. It's the same as people who have a blown knee or shoulder but it's basically every major joint in my body plus more. Obviously this gets in the way of sitting at a desk or long sessions using mice or controllers, as well as any physical activity other than swimming or stationary bike. Limited lifting helps too but you have to baby your joints so real progress is difficult and you have to focus on maintenance. Mental illness is pretty common with it because endocrine deficiency leads to brain imbalances, but meds + counseling are surprisingly decent at keeping the worst at bay.

i have schizoprenia, nothing helps anymore
last game i played was lego island 2

i had a major stroke 5 years ago and was left completely paralized on my right side also ended up in a wheelchair. i managed to get back most of it in a matter of 2 months with a lot of work and practice. nowadays i'm autonomous and self-reliant, got back most of my capabilites at 90 percent and had a surgery that went well but you never completely heal from something like that. I've seen people that are left completely paralized and it's tough, really tough... most people don't realize how lucky they are.

Nice job anon, keep working hard. My dad had a stroke two and a half years ago and was walking around with assistance this year but then fainted in a cafe, retarded doctors put him on anti-epilepsy medication which was then blocked and built up because he had a urinary tract infection preventing it from going away and he lost most of his muscle in three weeks in the hospital. He's building back up though, so again, good job and keep it up.

>I got diagnosed with mental retardation pretty early on. I can't stop playing and praising Souls games
That tracks to be fair.

>>723406561
I have PTSD from child abuse (and heart problems, from the sleep problems. My eyesight was also worsening but seems to have gotten better for some reason. I still have no patience for tiny text in games, though)

A few years ago, it got really bad, and I thought I was growing irritable and strange, so I made some excuses and cut myself off from all my online friends. The only contact I have with people now is on here and in online videogames, sometimes.

>>723422096
A lot of games these days come with accessibility options.

My right ear doesn't work.
I have to fight against surround audio making me hear only half of the stuff.

I have myotonic muscular dystrophy
It's more of an everyday annoyance then a disability really.
Generally my muscles sometimes contract when doing sudden movement. Basically my hand sometimes freezes during a handshake for few seconds, and so on.
When it comes to video games, I sometimes have problem with more challenging quick time events, I remember I couldn't beat Bayonetta on PC because of this.

it is incredibly rare for an anime or basically any form of japanese literature to wrap up everything and feel like it began with a coherent ending in mind

I despise how noisy games are becoming. I just need to pay attention to everything and too much information overloads my brain. I don't get headaches but I will just entirely dissociate.
Always found myself interested in stylized games because of how CLEAR everything is visually (most of the time).

>>723466792
I wholeheartedly agree with this, I'm sick of all the visual noise in games, either tone it down or have a stylized artstyle

>>723443346
have you looked into bone induction or cochlear implants? i have conductive loss in one ear due to a viral infection but even bone headphones bypassed it completely. If it gets any worse I'm thinking of trying to get bone induction on one side but the tech is hanging between looking goofy and cyberpunk at the moment

>tinnitus/hyperacusis
>Erectile dysfunction
>severe dry eyes
>bouts of insomnia
>bouts of stomach pain/IBS

The dry eyes is the only one that's impacted gaming directly, when it's bad, I cant look at screens without distracting pain, but it's been tolerable the past year. Also quit fighting games since they're too red to go outside to tournaments. Hyperacusis is annoying since I csnt use headphones a lot but I moved back in with my mom so I have to. ED can indirectly affect vidya because when I want to kms cause of it I'm not in any mood to play vidya or do anything except doomscroll and rot

>>723469556
I managed to win the lottery and have double tinnitus. You get used to it and subconsciously filter it out. You have to concentrate on it to hear it. The worst case scenario is if you are trying to locate the source of actual sound of a similar pitch and you are not sure if it's coil whine or just the usual, but it's not a common scenario.

>>723470610
Like, both ears and roughly the same volume? I have that too, didn't know that was the more fortunate variant. Didn't even know people could get it in just one ear, which makes sense now that I think about it.

>>723471181
Double as in two different tones. From what I understand it's rarer and it was sarcastic. One sounds like from "everywhere" with no discernible direction and a different one on the right. The second is lower volume though so it's mostly covered by the baseline.

>>723406561
I have tinnitus in my left ear that came from sudden sensorineural hearing loss. I just turn up the volume loud to try to distract myself. I can't play quiet games for long sessions.

>>723459009
How bad is it? Do you hear voices/ shit all the time non stop ? Heard video games are the schizophrenic best friend, along with music

>>723469556
I used to think tinnitus would be impossible to live with since my hearing is pretty sensitive, but turns out it's ridiculously easy to get used to. I'm actually more bothered with the subtle but noticeable hearing loss on higher frequencies overall.

It sounds like your depression is seconday to some other condition like bipolar, that's gotta suck. I think mine just came from my life getting turned into ruins, multiple health problems, intestines exploded due to diverticulitis and had to be rushed into surgery, then had a stoma done and had to use a colostome bag for 8 months before serious surgery again to reverse is. All during the covid area when my new business went under due to lockdowns, took a year off and was just drinking until i basically collapsed and was taken to hospital, liver failure, kidney failure, completely decondition due to muscle atrophy. Alcholism is not pretty, I wouldn't recommend it.

Once I got sober the depression hit worse, like 5x as badly with no escape, like you had trouble getting out of bed. Losing my house due to not working and just been miserable recovering for a year.

A lot of this I did to myself so I cant complain, but living in a world where you dont get any enjoyment from something you've loved for like 30 years is brutal. People think depression is a meme, it's really not.
