Overview

A break helps you step away from a game and check how you feel. Stand up, get a drink of water, and do something unrelated to the screen. Set a reminder before you begin if it is easy to lose track of time.

Before you play

Avoid playing when you are upset, exhausted, or trying to change your mood after a difficult event. Those moments can make it harder to stick to a plan. If play is no longer enjoyable, stopping is a sensible choice.
