I feel like this is simplifying the emotional struggle too much.
The failures you fear the most are the most complicated, the ones that hit you on multiple levels. The last straws, the big, impactful, long-lasting ones that take more away from you than you know how to deal with. Especially if you've already exhausted your avenues of help, or know that there is not really anything else you can do. Those suck, and they suck hard, and there is no way around that except to accept it and pick yourself back up.
Sometimes a video game is the last piece of self-worth people have, and so yeah, of course it's a scary prospect.
Sometimes it isn't okay to fail. But you have to learn to keep trying anyways, and nothing will make it easier or better.
