Internet Gaming Addiction Treatment

WHAT IS INTERNET GAMING ADDICTION?

The computer and console gaming industry is vast and ever-growing. One of the biggest forms being Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games (MMORPG).

These enable the player to fully immerse themselves in a world where they get to choose their characteristics and form alliances or a community in order to complete a multitude of tasks.

These games have evolved over a relatively short time span to be highly engaging. They use a variety of positive reinforcement techniques and are therefore very appealing.

Addicted individuals may find themselves in front of the screen for more and more hours each day, sometimes for days at a time, and become so absorbed that their life seems to pass them by.

This virtual or augmented reality is a fantasy world that can feel safe and familiar – an escape. When gaming crosses the line from leisure/pleasure to compulsivity, gamers may find they are unable to stop or stay stopped. They may experience severe withdrawal (anger, depression, isolation, emptiness) when unable to play.
