Nightmares..

[confused!!]

I am professionally a Games tester..Currently i am testing a very scary gamemy problem is that I have been getting nightmares about the game.The reason i think is not because the game is so scary but i think the work pressure is getting to my head..I m the best performing member of my team and probably the pressure to mantain myself is pi$$ing me off...wht should I do

[slugger]

drink warm milk+honey before sleeping

since u are no longer a student. u can afford to sleep 8 hrs a day...do it

go for a run in the open every morning..treadmills just don't cut it.

gymming is also a gr8 stress buster, but you should get some outdoor air, which i dont think u do

take a break....do Vipassana
[5 people 3 of them not known to the others said the same thing - it works and in pretty much the same way]

[Faun]

Don't bend too much, or life many lol you

btw which game is this too much scary tag, please PM me.

[confused!!]

Seriously its not as enjoyable job as it seems..ok u get good money..life seems kind of cool...but really when you try to screw a single game for 7 hrs a day for 3 months u really will begin to get nightmares

[chicha]

game testing is cool job for ppl who like playing games like me, but i think when you do it as a profession you do not enjoy it as much as you would if you were playing for fun.
anyways since when do you get these dreams?
are you worried that they come or are you not getting proper sleep because they come?

if there is some thing bothering me then before sleeping i start making my own dream and make consious effort to keep it moving as long as i can, and then i do not remember a thing the next morning.

if you belive in god pray to him and sleep.

Its 2.8 PA..its not a lot..but as they provide cab facility and also fooding..i actually end up with a good saving..and also as the Industry is very nascent in India one can expect a good career growth...

and if the game comes out to be a big flop and you to test it 7 hours a day then you will come to know how good job is that

btw do morning walk...........

[pimpom]

Ease up, fellas. The guy needs to loosen up, not have more pressure put on him. I mean badgering him for info about the game or about getting a job like his.

I know what it's like when you make a living doing something you like doing. Other people tend to think you're such a lucky s.o.b. you shouldn't have a care in the world. But it's not quite like that. Sure, it's better than working at something you don't like, but it's not the same as doing it at your own pace, when and where you like it.

Confused!!, learn to take it easy. Consciously relax. Develop other interests and mix with other people who have nothing to do with the kind of work you do. Make sure you get enough sleep - this is very important.

So what if you lose your position as top dog in your team? It's not the end of the world. Get your life together first and you can regain that position later.

^^yes that why I am taking 2 hrs off my work everyday to play volleyboll..
