I've been addicted to this game since 2020 when I first started playing. Didn't miss a single event. Used every free raid pass every day, but two weeks ago I stopped using my free passes, and the last three days I've only opened up the app to open gifts and then immediately closed it after sending the free ones i get from my buddy. Didn't even think about the raid day today, knew it was happening, but didn't care at all.
How is this possible? How did Niantic break my addiction? Finishing the Vivillon platinum medal and seeing that the blue bar was still there, meaning another tier of medals past platinum is what I think made it click in my head, that I can make infinite progress, and they'll just extend the treadmill further to an unreachable point. I'll never actually be able to accomplish anything in this game. Bros... I think I just wasted the last two years of my life.
