This guys spitting facts. I’m just getting into D&D and I’ve been listening too a podcast called “Dungeons and Daddies” This group has caused me to have every single emotion I can have in one single episode. Such an amazing podcast if anyones looking for something to listen
That was excellent, and after 5 years of both playing and and DMing a long running campaign, I can fully get behind the D&D as therapy platform! D&D for all!
He looks like Dan Avidan with a beard. This video is awesome. 🙂 Learning that D&D can kinda be like therapy is such an amazing thing. I play solo with five characters, and it's been a wonderful experience. ❤ I have a difficult time saying no, and standing up for myself - especially for the things I want in romantic relationships. I also have depression and PTSD. Since I've been running a solo D&D campaign with five characters, my main elf character, Xilfina, has stood up for herself. I feel like the combat she goes through with her other party members is a metaphor for defending yourself and who you are. Since I began the campaign with Xilfina, I feel like it's become a lot easier to say no.
I am glad you are healing. I have an entire playlist called "TTRPG as Therapy" that might aid you even more. And I am writing an article that for now, only exists on my blog, as I have used TTRPG to help others.
Methinks part of the reason of why D&D is such a great storytelling device is because it gives an easy excuse to tell stories. That and the fact that one doesn't have to tell the whole story (beginning, middle and end) makes it much easier for those of us who are socially awkward to feel much more comfortable starting the process.
Usually is a whole story. I know plenty of stories that start with immediate conflict that don't end with the death of the bad guy.. Star Wars come to mind?
@@nickhayley Darth Vader did die yes, but them, so did Anakin, "from a certain point of view." Then Anakin destroyed Darth Vader and became a Force Ghost.
I'm my opinion d&d 3.5 is the best one because it literally gives you almost unlimited ways to do whatever you want if you really want to you can find a way to do it version 4 and 5 are more cookie cutter in 3.5 you can find a way around any rules to best your dm if your clevor enough
I would submit that part of the reason you may love about .5 is the extensive library of material available to that version. 5th Edition is still comparatively new so it has much less source materials available.. Oh if you like 3.5 take a look at Paizo's Pathfinder. It and 3.5 are very interchangeable though there are differences.
I’m gonna be honest I’ve been playing dungeons and dragons for 35 years I can instantly tell if a person I meet plays or not and then I base my opinions off of them based on that

It has been an amazing healing journey for me.
Love D&D. It’s a great break from worrying about the atrocities in Gaza right now.
Younger weird Al is giving a speech of dungeons and dragons, and how it's therapy, nice.
Excellent talk! I'm surprised it doesn't have more views. Well said, that man.
Great talk, thank you very much!
Damn Right! imagination is everyting!
Dude looks like he is from the 1970's! 😀

Having fun is good for your brain. Hey, imagine that.

I agree! I’m pretty new to DND but I only play 3.5 for that reason.
If the mentality at your table is that it's a contest in which you need to defeat the DM, you're doing it wrong. It's not supposed to be that.
