Does anyone have a headset? What do you think about it in the context of your mental health?

    I got into VR during the pandemic which allowed me to socialize at any time (often in the wee hours) in VRChat. It absolutely helped my mental state at the time. I also discovered countless people using VR for other mental and physical health reasons. Ended up with a girlfriend who moved to my state (going on four years now). There are also worlds specifically for chilling out, sightseeing, nature etc. I would highly highly recommend it to anyone for VRChat alone (which is also free).

    Eventually I branched out into other games and now I can’t go back to flat first person games. The immersion of VR can’t be described.

    So yeah, 100% get a headset. Meta just announced new prices so you can get started for as little as $299 (for the Quest 3S). Obviously there are many other options out there (I personally like Pico) but I don’t know the specifics of your situation. Feel free to ask any questions.
