        It's called addiction. What drug cocktail do the Psychs hope to hook people on for the "gaming disorder/illness" ? The irony of it all !

        We should keep things in perspective - addictive behaviors are the heart of the problem, while video games may also uncover new therapeutic options for anxiety, PTSD and autism: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyt.2017.00300/full … @JohnsHopkinsSPH @JHUmHealth @MichelleCarras #vgtx @WHOpic.twitter.com/vsTKXG5C2H

        We’re all addicted to something, whether perceived as good or bad, even if the addiction is just to do nothing. The body craves it.

        Addicted to Candy Crush Saga? What level was she/he on? Can you imagine, disability claims being filed for an addiction to CCS? Are people really missing work and hold up in their homes playing Candy Crush?

        My addiction was Tetris. I get a tingle through my body when I think about all those brightly colored squares, randomly sinking down from the beyond. Aahhhhhh...
