Video & PC games

There are so many video game developers these days that they’re having an increasingly hard time finding beta testers. (a beta tester is someone who plays the game before it is released to find out if there are any bugs in the game.) And like all of the economy works, whenever it’s hard to find something, companies will start paying more and more money for the service.

Unlike other forms of addiction, the number of cases of video game addiction and computer game addiction continues to grow. While virtual games are prevalent to a significant portion of the world’s population, no one is too young or too old to be a gaming addict. It is really hard to maintain control when you are having too much fun. This control is even harder when involving kids. In modern societies, you may not even find a kid who is not familiar with any video or computer games since these games are free to access. Worse, they may even get the habit from their parents, who are often misled that playing virtual games would enrich their children’s minds or imagination. These disturbing facts emphasize the need to promote awareness on this new trend and face of addiction.

Many people are continuously drawn to the hype of computer and video games. It is originally intended to provide an exciting way of spending free time, providing a chance of escaping into a complex virtual world where the stresses and pressures bring by real life situations can be left behind. In this case, playing virtual games is rather therapeutic. What makes them destructive is when a player grows dependence on these games to feel good about their lives; hence, giving the same effect that narcotic substances give addicts.

Taking the proactive role of limiting the involvement and the time spent on playing video and computer games can prevent the prevalence of computer game addiction or video game addiction. For parents, they can start by implementing strict time schedules on staying in front of game consoles. For adults, they may start by enlisting on therapy sessions where they can gain better perspective of their own lives. Since this new face of addiction does not concentrate on a specific age group, everybody is vulnerable to giving in to the good feeling that these games bring. Thanks to its attainable reward-system and worldwide-based social networks, these games are much harder to resist. While there are a significant number of cases of gaming addiction to adult population, we can expect more on children especially those in school ages.

Thankfully, many institutions have devised a way to managing and treating video game addiction and computer game addiction. Combinations of psychopharmacology and psychological treatment methods are used to design rehabilitation or recovery programs. These programs usually appeal to improving the individual’s perception of their lives more than the withdrawal, since we can never escape the use of computers in work and school work applications. Many issues are still to be settled on the diagnosis of this new face of addiction, often causing confusions. However, if you feel that you or your child is already affected by compulsive gaming disorder, don’t allow it to develop into an addiction. Immediately seek medical help.
