Hi. I'm currently a teenager and I unknowingly have been "life logging" with OBS Studio since last August. I thought of this idea independently by myself lol. I have only discovered that other people do this and it is called "life logging" today. I decided to search up if other people do this and I'm glad to find out that I'm not the only one. The reason for this is because I ran out of local storage on my PC last week (I have a 1TB SATA SSD. Currently 1 hour of video is like 1GB so I have like 760 hours of video) and I have been unable to record for the past week. My dad has known I've been doing this for a couple months and he thinks I'm mentally ill and says I should go see a shrink. He originally blocked OBS Studio when he first found out, but now he doesn't really care. My current problem is I am unable to buy more storage. I'm still unable to ask my dad to buy me, because he'll obvious refuse and it will remind him of my "problem". He thinks it's a problem. Anyways I'm kinda stuck with how to proceed. Should I show him that other people do this and try to convince him that I'm not mentally ill?
