After years of depression, anxiety and drug abuse, sim racing has brought me back to life. After years of using controller, today I dive face first into a hobby I never knew would help me with so much. Thank you all for being an amazing community!

That’s what I thought but I’ve been into sim racing for over a year now, I’ve just never had a wheel. To me, the wheel is a right of passage to turn it from “just a game” into a real hobby, and maybe one day a career.

Good luck and have fun, i was in a similar boat the last few years, was battling a gambling addiction and all that went with it, watched Jimmy broadbent on youtube, thought i'd dabble in Raceroom with a controller, then started watching a few twitch streamers (benevs) and Bought a G920 and iracing, and as u/96th_Citizen said it's another addiction BUT a good addiction!

Good job man! I’m glad you are fighting the good fight. Jimmy was my introduction to sim racing as well and oh boy, did I fall in love with this stuff. I mainly rallied on controller for a year and thought I was due for an upgrade (finally saved up enough after not dumping every paycheck on drugs so huge W in my book).

Edit: YOU GUYS ARE INCREDIBLE! I can’t thank you enough for the support and positive vibes you folks are bringing my way. I’m honestly getting emotional because this was all I’ve wanted for so long and nothing is holding me back from chasing my dreams any longer. I hope to see you all on the tracks, leaderboards, and hopefully meet some of you in new communities I’ll be joining here shortly....as soon as I learn how to drive all over again!

Glad to hear you’re doing better! If you ever hop on to iRacing, I found a group called Sim Racers For Mental Health on there that have been a great community for me. Figured I’d pass it along to you
