Terrible advice. One year of lazing around and playing videogames is a good way to lose any self-discipline you would been building up to this point. There is nothing toxic in working to improve yourself and/or building projects you are passionate about - quite the contrary. The feeling of accomplishment can do wonders to one's mental health.
- thunky 4y ago> One year of lazing around and playing videogames is a good way to lose any self-discipline you would been building up to this point Do you really want people to devote their life to their jobs, even while unemployed? I don't see a thing wrong with spending your down time doing whatever makes you happy.
- kelnos 4y agoSpeaking of toxicity, this idea that the primary means of valuing ourselves and being "healthy" should be through our job or independent job-related work... ugh, super toxic. I don't think the grandparent was suggesting they literally sit around for a year and do nothing buy play video games. But, hell, taking time off between jobs is a great idea, and if video games are your thing, spending a chunk of that time off playing sounds like it could be great for your mental health. But, just like anything else, moderation!
