What are the consequences of a computer game addiction?
8 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
You tell me: Any addiction usually causes problems in other areas of one's life, troubled relationships, neglect of work or school, neglect of ones own health. Moodiness and irritability. Losing interest in other activities you used to enjoy. Inablity to stop playing even if you try. If concerned you could talk to a counselor to find ways to tackle this addiction.
