Returning to Dragon Age: Origins feels like coming home, and it’s helping me navigate through grief

So True. The most difficult times in my life were accompanied by some great games and select movies.

The companions in Mass Effect and Dragon Age were very connecting.

”By losing myself in a game I know so well, I somehow found myself again. By becoming a hero who could be courageous, I could somehow find my way back to feeling a little more together”

This. All those values are already within you. We just need a little reminding.
