Balance, my friend! It's great that you're passionate about making games. It's a fun and rewarding activity - and it's a great introduction to programming if you want to turn this into a career!
I have a full-time job, yet the past year has been one of my most productive times I've ever had for making games. I've also gone on a long walk almost every day - that's been really helpful in clearing my mind after I've been staring at a screen all day. And while the pandemic has limited my social life, I've tried to make time to stay in touch with family and friends.
In the long run, you'll be more productive and more creative if you find the right balance - work hard on your games and personal projects when you're in the mood, but take the time to exercise, hang out with friends and family, eat nourishing food (don't subsist solely on Mountain Dew!), and stuff.
