Managing Rage — What Gaming Teaches Me About Emotional Control
Gaming doesn’t just test your aim — it tests your emotions.
This episode of HissingThoughts looks at why we rage, why it matters, and how awareness inside a match can translate to real emotional control outside it.
I’m not preaching here — I’m still learning. But this is what gaming has taught me about frustration, self-regulation, and how staying in the struggle might actually be the best training for life.

Gaming Therapy For Your Soul
Today's podcast deals with the mental side of health. Inner issues that impact the outer. It is taken from a gaming live-stream I was running over at https://www.youtube.com/c/HISSINGTHOUGHTSGAMING and a fan in need started asking some serious questions, which resonated with all present. I'm not an expert in this subject, I just have my own experiences to draw upon. If you are in a place of crisis then I suggest one of the many helplines that each country has. But hopefully this episode is received in a postive light for the light it shines on some of the subject matter. The music appearing in this episode is written by me and my band, Shades in a Dark Room. They are all un-mixed, un-mastered and un-released. Works in progress, almost finished.
Because this discussion started during a gaming live stream it also explores the concept of playing games as a means to help with issues such as depression. Or to help you grow as a person. Gaming therapy. It's more common and useful than you think.

Finding our voice in the silence
If a pod casts in the digital forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?

We too shall pass.
Something just happened which has prompted me to discuss some things that I had yet to say.

Happy accidents #sexytimes
Sometimes it’s good too look for the good in the bad. The sooner, the better. Tell me about your favourite #happyaccident by going to the anchor podcasting app (or anchor.fm) and leave me a message. (Press message, not record. Otherwise you too could become and accidental podcaster. Would that be a bad thing?)
