Why don't more people take video game addiction seriously?
Why don't more people take video game addiction seriously?
Gabriel Howard
Dominic Russell
Because video games are video games.
What are you, retarded?
Jason Roberts
Explain?
Landon Edwards
Is there a difference between addiction and something just being so good it makes everything else look like shit by comparison?
Dominic Anderson
Put me in the screencap XD
Evan Diaz
I realized that I derive some element of my self worth from however good or bad I’m doing in whatever game I’m focusing on so I probably have a problem but vidya is just a symptom of failing everywhere else
Tyler Butler
Because there's no such thing.
It's like saying someone has football addiction.
Carter Cooper
And people die when they are killed.
Bentley Anderson
"internet games"
lol good thing I only play single player games.
Anthony Sullivan
Because the cure for videogame addiction was found years ago. Its called "posting on Zig Forums".
Brayden Thomas
Is there such a thing as shitposting addiction disorder? Because I didn't touch a video game in months. I spend all my time on this god-forsaken website
Sebastian Collins
Addiction is still pretty undefined and the vast majority of people still think addiction is only referenced in substance abuse. Studies suggest addiction is as much of a part of our every day lives as happiness and sadness. Most people are addicted to something like work or a hobby, but it's only viewed as a problem when it leads to perceived negative effects. I know addicted coffee drinkers, addicted horse owners, addicted workaholics, ect. Like most mental health aspects, we are only scraping the surface of how complicated out brains really are.
Caleb Johnson
no one cares mr einstein dumbfuck
Aiden Adams
Why isn't gender dysphoria classed as a mental illness in the (((DSM-V)))?
Dylan Rodriguez
because trannies are in power and have the money to sue.
Camden Cox
not him but kill yourself you subhuman monkey
Jeremiah Edwards
these are literally the same 'symptoms' for every other type of addiction that exists
>preoccupation with getting drunk/gambling
>withdrawl symptoms when alcohol/gambling is taken away
>need to drink more alcohol/gamble more money
>inability to control drinking/gambling
>loss of interests in things that aren't drinking/gambling
>i know i have drinking/gambling problems but i can't stop
>etc
who knew being addicted to something is like being addicted to something
Adrian Clark
You should be low risk then, that good to hear.
Luis Nelson
>this is mental illness but cutting your dick off is normal and brave
Jaxson Thompson
Logan James
If games are addictive, why did I completely lose interest in them and can't even force myself to finish one?
Checkamte faget
Lucas Gray
If I cant use this to get opioids, then it's worthless.
Dylan Miller
obsessed
Daniel Wood
Because unlike drugs or booze, you can lose interest in it and it doesn't control you.
It's effects only affect you for as long as it can keep you interested.
Justin Nelson
I care, it was an interesting read. Consider killing yourself
Tyler Long
>Just forget last year that in the same week they declared playing video games a mental illness but removed gender dysphoria from the DSM
Piss off tranny
Julian Ward
>Why don't more people take video game addiction seriously?
The same reason they don't take sex addiction seriously, it's not an addiction unless you have absolutely zero control of yourself.
Henry Russell
They didn't declare playing video games a mental illness
Thomas Smith
>it's not an addiction unless you have absolutely zero control of yourself.
Patently false.
Thomas Barnes
If it's not an addiction then why don't you quit?
Noah Nelson
No, if you can't walk away from a game, you have so little willpower that your life is destined to be a dark spiral of self-destruction, an absolute waste of a life.
Robert Anderson
That argument is only valid for porn
