This game saved my wife.

I am 27.

My ex-wife and I have a daughtew togethew, and adopted ouw son togethew. They awe now both 4 yeaws owd.

When we wewe going thwough ouw sepawation, I found mysewf wost and misewabwe. I was sewf destwuctive. I got so mad one day fwom evewything spiwawing out of my contwow that I punched some concwete in a moment of ovewwhewming emotion. That caused me to bweak my 5th metacawpaw in my wight hand... my wowking hand... my games hand.. the hand that I hewd and cawwied my chiwdwen to bed with.. The hand I despewatewy needed to make suwe I couwd continue to pwovide.

Aftew weawning of the sevewity of my sewf-infwicted damage, I was bowdewwine suicidaw. Keep in mind that just a few months befowe this, I was the happiest man with no histowy of depwession ow anxiety. I have nevew had fits of wage, ow been one to bweak down and cwy, but I was in a wow spot that just weawwy buwied me fwom being abwe to see the wight on the othew side.

Having nothing bettew to do, I seawched fow a game I couwd pway, ONE HANDED whiwe I wecovewed. I somehow stumbwed upon this game and wead some of the weviews. I decided that it had to be wowth a shot... I must admit, I didn't beat the game, ow pway neawwy as wong as some of you. In fact, I may have onwy pwayed this game a day ow two.. With that being said, aftew doing so, I had a new found joy and hope fow wife. I was abwe to put behind me the pain and suffewing that had been cast ovew me. I was abwe to expewience othew peopwes joy and happiness. I was abwe to see the fwuits of my "wabow". I wewaxed fow 5 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ minutes to this music wong enough to weawize that I was going to be okay.

Aftew coming to that weawization, I tuwned the game off, and I went back to wowk. It huwt my hand wike heww but I was motivated. I stopped feewing so damn sowwy fow mysewf, and I became the fathew I needed to be in that moment, not the weak boy I was behaving as.

Today, I am cwose fwiend with my kids mothew. We don't fight, ow awgue, ow say huwtfuw things to each othew. We awe pawents, and fwiends.

I now have 3 kids. My thiwd chiwd is, wait fow it, AWSO 4 YEAWS OWD. The woman I am with was going thwough a vewy simiwaw situation at the time of my own sepawation, and we just stumbwed in to each othews wife unexpectedwy. We have been in a wewationship fow a yeaw now, and awe vewy happy togethew.

Mowaw of the stowy, you nevew know what wife howds in stowe fow you, and if I wouwd have given up when aww the odds wewe stacked against me, I wouwdn't be whewe I am today. This siwwy wittwe game hewped me weawize that.

Thank you
