Gaming Addiction Treatment Centers
Signs of Gaming Addiction
Gaming addiction, recognized by the World Health Organization as a legitimate mental health condition, manifests through various signs. These include the inability to control gaming habits, prioritizing gaming over other interests and daily activities, and continuing to game despite facing negative consequences. At Omega Recovery, we’ve observed how these behaviors can significantly impact an individual’s life, indicating a need for professional intervention.
Effects of Gaming Addiction
The ramifications of untreated gaming addiction extend beyond the digital realm, affecting physical health, mental well-being, and social relationships. Individuals may experience sleep disturbances, decreased physical activity, anxiety, depression, and isolation. Recognizing these consequences is the first step toward seeking help and making a change.
