Online Gaming (and Internet) Addiction
Addiction to gaming is described in the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic
and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), which is used by mental health
professionals to diagnose mental disorders, for further research.

The DSM-5 includes substance-related addictive disorders, such as alcohol, tobacco,

stimulants, marijuana and opioids. Gambling disorder is the only behavioural
addiction (as opposed to substance use) identified in DSM-5.This proposed condition
is limited to gaming and does not include problems with general use of the internet,
online gambling, or use of social media or smartphone

Symptoms:
✓ Withdrawal symptoms when gaming is taken away or not possible (sadness,
anxiety, irritability)
✓ Tolerance, the need to spend more time gaming to satisfy the urge
✓ Inability to reduce playing, unsuccessful attempts to quit gaming
✓ Giving up other activities, loss of interest in previously enjoyed activities
✓ Continuing to game despite problems
✓ Deceiving family members or others about the amount of time spent on gaming
✓ The use of gaming to relieve negative moods, such as guilt or hopelessness 12
✓ Risk, having jeopardized or lost a job or relationship due to gaming
