Best Video Game Addiction Treatment Program

Have you ever made a commitment to yourself or anyone else to restrict your gaming time but failed to follow through? Gaming addiction affects many people but only a small number of players actually seek help. While hundreds of video games addiction treatment programs exist throughout Asia, treatment options in the U.S had been almost non-existent. But now that’s changed.

At Omega, we help you understand the reasons why you started gaming in the first place and give you tools to live a fulfilled life without video games. We know that video game addiction is a real problem affecting millions of people all across the world. Gaming addiction can lead to depression, anxiety, relationship problems, social isolation and job loss. Video game addiction is a form of tech addiction, computer addiction or internet addiction and can often co-occurs with other addictions such as drug or alcohol abuse.

Video Game Addiction Issues and Symptoms

Video game addiction can lead players to neglect important areas of life such as school, work or relationships with others. Video games have been designed in a way to be addictive just like drugs or alcohol are. This makes it extremely difficult for players to stop playing. Video game addiction can lead to depression, social isolation and job loss. Furthermore, people with video game addiction often experience a host of health related problems such as sleep deprivation, weight gain or weight loss and even seizures resulting from lack of sleep and poor diet.

Signs or symptoms of video game addiction:

  • Emotional: Feelings of restlessness when trying to do an “offline” activity.
  • Nutritional: Gaming may reduce appetite or excessive snacking when gaming, leading to poor nutrition and weight gain.
  • Sleep Deprivation: due to late night gaming, which can lead to severe exhaustion as well as other health problems.
  • Social: Strained interpersonal relationships because of other family members feeling neglected for video games’ sake. So much time
  • Physical: Weakness in body or fatigue
