Video Game Addiction: Recognizing the Signs

The DSM-5 gives the following diagnostics for internet gaming disorder. Many overlap with signs for other addictions:

  • Tolerance: Playing video games more often and for longer periods of time in order to feel the same amount of satisfaction.
  • Obsession: Being preoccupied with gaming, even when not playing.
  • Avoidance: Using video games as an escape from real difficulties and challenges.
  • Withdrawal: Experiencing irritability, moodiness, depression, or restlessness when trying to quit gaming.
  • Skewed priorities: Choosing videos games over time with family and friends, or over career and educational opportunities.
  • Deceit: Lying to loved ones about gaming.
  • Escape: Alleviating challenging emotions (guilt, shame, sadness, loneliness, anxiety, boredom, depression, et cetera) by playing video games.

Compulsive Gaming’s Potential Negative Effects

Any impulse control disorder or addiction has the potential for devastating effects within a person’s life, and internet gaming disorder is no different. Those who struggle with video game addiction may experience negative relational, physical, and emotional effects.

  • Relational: As people form attachments to video games, their real-world relationships may suffer. In particular, lying about video game use can wound loved ones, as can irresponsible spending on equipment and monthly fees.
  • Physical: Indirectly, obsession with gaming often leads to neglect of one’s body, resulting in poor eating habits, lost sleep, and neglected hygiene. Directly, too much gaming can cause Carpel Tunnel Syndrome, dry eyes, headaches, and back pain.
  • Emotional: Using video games to avoid emotional problems often means those issues grow.
