I play Half Life 2 to ease depression since I won't tolerate the side effects of SSRI medication. It's the only video game I play and I've beaten it literally hundreds of time. I can fly through the whole thing in about 4 hours on the hardest setting I've played it so much. I don't know why it works and I don't want to even poke at it lest it stop working but when I have an "episode" where everything goes gray I just fire the game up and start waxing head crabs. Pretty soon I'm right as rain.

As an addendum, the only thing I don't like about my M1 Mac is HL2 doesn't work on it other than through Crossover Office and even then it's extremely glitchy. If anybody has suggestions to get it running well I'm all eyes.
