मैं दस हज़ार स्पिन जीता, लेकिन खुद को खो बैठा:

आपको पता है, 2:17 AM पर मोबाइल की स्क्रीन पर संगीत-झंझट? मुझे पता है।

यह सिर्फ़ एक गेम नहीं, मेरे खुद से पलायन का मार्गथा।

मैंने क्रैश-स्पिन थेरेपी कहलवाया।एक-एक क्लिक,ईगल-धड़कन,फिर—क्लिक—जेबमें सबसे प्रभावशाली ‘जयघोष’।डोपामाइन कि.उछल!असली ‘विजय’?इसमें सचमुच ‘अपमान’था।

महीनों-भर, थंडरट्रैक, स्टारफ़াयर स्प्रिंट,बेसब्र!गणनशील ‘खेल’—जहाँ ‘भगवान’खुद हवा में (उछल)थे।

मैंने सभी…पर अपन-अपन!

और …एक…बदलगया?

dhokhe ke baad aapki neet kya hua?

Har raat kaam ke baad main apne chhat par ek thandhi chai ke saath khada rehta tha aur crash-spin games kholta tha۔ Khaas na paisa jeetne ke liye —balki wajah se jhootha ehsaas dhoondh raha tha.

Sreen mein prakriti ki nayi shaktiyan: Zeus ki barish path, Apollo ki svarna rastein. Har round me ek vyakti ko vikas milti thi.

Lekin ek cheez jo koi nahi batata: The jyada tum agle spin ke liye bhaagte ho… The zyada tu jeevan se door ho jaate ho.

Jitne Se Bhi Kho Jaane Ka Saath

Tino mahine bad maine ek bhayankar baat samjhi: Maine haan-e-khaas mein ab tak haan nahi maara tha. mere saamne kisi ne bina phone check karke dekha nahi tha. kewal do minute ka antar jab main chaar din me bahar nikalta tha — chahe woh chaos me hi kyun na ho. Ye excitement nahin hai… ye dissociation hai. yeh APA Journal of Behavioral Addictions ke anusandhanon se milta hai: repetitive digital engagement substance dependence jitni neural pathways activate kar sakta hai — paise ke liye nahin, balki ek temporary suspension of self ke liye. ye hum paise seekhne ke liye nahi khelte — hum silence se bhaagte hain. ye hamari khushi seekhne ke liye nahi — ham gham ko avoid kar rahe hain. aur sabse buri baat? Hum sochte hain ki hum jeet rahe hain jab asli me hum apni reality ka ankhai kho rahe hain.

Spin Cycle Khatam Hote Hi Stillness Ko Wapas Lena

Ek barishwali saturday ko main har tab band kar diya aur 47 minute tak sunai-sunai rakhi—kuch na kuch toh bas soch-bachcha jaisa thoda dhundhte hue, to sirf meri hi pehen aur mera hi skin phir se mil gaya. it was terrifying… and healing at once. The next day I deleted all gambling apps from my device—not forever, but as an act of repair. Not punishment. An invitation back home—to myself, to presence, to real time, to unscripted moments where nothing is earned or lost… just lived.* The truth? Pleasure isn’t found in constant motion—it lives in stillness between pulses.The most radical act now isn’t playing harder—it’s stopping altogether.

What You Can Do Today (If You Need To)

If you’ve ever felt trapped in a loop—where clicking feels safer than feeling—here are three small steps:

• Set a physical timer: Play only during one fixed window per day (e.g., 8–8:30 p.m.). When it ends—close everything.*
• Write down one sensation after each session: “My shoulders were tight.” “My eyes hurt.” “My chest felt hollow.” Naming it breaks its power.*
• Replace one spin with one breath: Breathe slowly five times before hitting ‘start.’ Let yourself be present—not performative.*

You don’t have to quit forever—you just need space to remember who you are outside the game.*

Final Thought: The Game Was Never About Winning

They say winning feels good—but losing yourself? That costs everything else.*

So ask yourself tonight: What would happen if you stopped spinning… just once? What might come back?*
