Is it normal that i always turn to my playstation when i feel these emotions?

I have no interests at all, I'm still a student and I have nothing to do with my life. Everytime I get offended, feel sad, useless, and so on, mostly negative emotions, I just go up to my room and lock myself there till I get bored or my eyes start to hurt. But now I'm sick and tired of doing the same stuff, I've been stuck with the same games and I'm bored with them. Right now I feel like a drama queen because I know that people have it far worse than I do, but my self esteem has been low as I can remember and my friends have detected some behaviours that are equal to depression and I have no one to turn to.

IIN?

    This is regular behaviour experienced by most gamers that have negative feelings, this is because playing a game can give you a sense of worth and allow you to win and feel needed especially team games :) games such a COD and Battlefield etc :) also games related round sport such as fifa can give you a sense of worth and achievement!:) I suggest you could get a small job or some hobbies outside such as a sport or another pass time, something that you can enjoy other than games that gets you out of the house get some air!:) good luck!:)

    I was like this for two years. I shut myself away and as a result lost a lot of friends. For two years this was my routine, wake up around 1, play xbox, have dinner, play xbox, get stoned, play xbox, go to bed about 4 am. I felt lonley, depressed and so worthless. Then i started a course which really helped, met friends and gave me an idea of how to achieve and set my goals (a career in psychology) also just getting out of my room helped. My plan was to enter a another course leading to studying psychology at university. I got nervous and messed up the test, so now I have to put my plans on hold for a year and I'm starting to slip into the old me again. As you are a student, what are you studying? it sounds like it doesn't fit your ideal plans. trust me I know how if feels to think your life isn't going anywhere and it's a bit pointless, it's about finding what you want and working towards it. Ask yourself, what do you want to do in life? where would you ideally be in 5 years? just start working towards it

    Here is a nice song from some Swedes, which may help.

    Although it sounds like flutes, it's actually a special instrument call goatflute (played with the horn).

    I like the blonde one. She's a reclusive vampire now who lives in a castle on an island in the sun in downtown Falksgettirkindensund in an atelier above the butcher's in the eye of a small child missing daddy in a polish sausage brewery in a locket around the neck of "Krusten" Stewart in her apartment on horseback. Imagine that, if you will.

    Seems to be something in the air because I've been feeling the same way lately. But instead of video games I watch entire seasons of television shows and hop on IIN. Sometimes I look for jobs or just sit around thinking because I don't want to do any of these things. I'm sure it will pass. Something has to give eventually, right?
