Default Re: Do I have issues?

Poker is no substitute for living. It's important to be driven at poker. You may very well have more potential than the best in the game... who knows. You want to quit your job because it's boring? Go for it. You can always go back to your field. Nothing wrong with that.

But what you described sounds like a problem if you aren't enjoying life, or you are losing your connections with people who matter to you. Don't use your desire to win and improve as a standin for dealing with your marital issues or work issues or whatever. To me, this sounds just like addictive behavior. Addicts use their drug to get away from the things that they don't want to deal with.

And with that said, i should get back to work...
