Are You Addicted to Video Games?

Do you only talk about video games when you do socialize with others?
Are you preoccupied with gaming (thinking about it when offline, anticipating your next online session)?
Have you lied to friends and family members to conceal extent of your online gaming?
Do you feel restless or irritable when attempting to cut down or stop online gaming?
Have you tried to reduce the amount of time gaming, but failed?
Do you use gaming as a way of escaping from problems or relieve feelings of helplessness, guilt, anxiety, or depression?
Have you jeopardized or lost relationships with loved one due to time spent gaming?
Do you spend more time gaming than completing homework or household chores?
Do you forget to sleep or eat while gaming?
When you dream, do you see yourself as a video character?

If you answered “yes” to any of the above questions, you may be addicted to online gaming. These are common warning signs that you have lost control, lied, or possibly risked a relationship to support your gaming behavior.
