I read Shauna Vella blog today with the title "Has Second Life helped you"
and wanted to give my answer too. So here we go:
Question: Many people claim Second Life has been beneficial
to their mental and emotional well being. Has it helped you?
My answer: Yes it has in many ways, like i started to use second life,
because i have always enjoyed english, but im danish so we don't talk
or write english so often so thats a reason i joined SL to keep my english.
I also i guess as many others used sl for while to escape real life
when things was bad , we all got problems in real life right? ;)
- a down side here has been i couldnt escape from second life i
used soo much time that people in my real life complained about it,
so then i learned to take time out from the game and knew my
friends inworld was always there when i came back online.
another downside with second life can be as Shauna also writes about
if you go negative places or surround yourself with negative people,
it will effect your mood as well in real life.
So be with people , or at places in second life that makes you happy,
and remember second life is just a game if your friends inworld
is true friends they will be there when you log back on
so dont run away from real life.
I myself only go to places to hangout with my friends i hope to meet
real life one day, im even going meet my second life partner this year!
I use second life to meet people from all over the world and to learn things
from them. I opened my "ears" for music i dont think i would ever have
listned too if it havent been for second life.
I guess i could go on and on with this lmao ! Anyways
thanks for the question Shauna i had to answer!
