I am a basketball fan. I enjoy watching ball at almost any level. I especially enjoy close competitive games. But when I am watching my teams, I get a rush when they take the lead or win a close game. I feel dark and down when they lose. I feel very frustrated when they aren't playing well or are giving a good effort. It's strange the affect it has on me. Watching a game is physically, mental and emotional draining experience.
When my teams are playing well, it is a euphoric, re-affirming joy ride. When they play poorly I have to focus on the small positives I can see from individual players.
Sometimes, I have to stop watching or a bad game can darken my mood for days.
Being a fan is hard.
