Gaming Disorder
Gaming Disorder is a condition recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) that involves excessive and compulsive use of video games. Individuals with this disorder may prioritize gaming over other important activities, leading to negative impacts on their personal, social, and academic lives.
Symptoms can include a lack of control over gaming habits, increased priority given to gaming over other interests, and continued gaming despite negative consequences. Treatment often involves therapy and support to help individuals regain balance in their lives and manage their gaming behavior effectively.
