Game Addiction

Game addiction, also known as gaming disorder, is characterized by excessive or compulsive engagement with video games, often at the expense of daily responsibilities, relationships, and mental health. It can lead to neglect of work or studies, social isolation, disrupted sleep patterns, and emotional distress.

Supportive Therapeutic Interventions

Therapeutic approaches for game addiction include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify and modify addictive thought patterns, mindfulness techniques to improve self-regulation, and goal-setting strategies to reduce gaming time. Family counseling and support groups can provide additional encouragement, while personalized digital detox plans help restore a healthy balance between gaming and daily life.
