The video game at the smartphone, computer or the play station has occupied much of the entertainment of the current generation. Although there are a lot of reasons behind this, it is necessary to know - how much addiction to sports or games is actually harmful to our current generation. And it must know that for the sake of the addiction of their children to the games, which are also largely responsible for the guardians.

Considering the global health gesture to add gaming addiction to the list of mental health problems very soon. They think that due to the addiction towards games/games, a person's behavioral changes can be seen, which can interfere with the existing relationships of other people related to him, and may even interfere with his performance in school or office. Although the games are very interesting for some people and they also have some mental benefits for them. But there should be a certain degree of hobby or entertainment, or it will become addictive and create many complications.

According to the World Health Organization, the 11th International Classification of Diseases (ICD) final approval or recognition has not been given. However, the list must include the addiction to games (which are now included as a draft list). According to the draft, there is three code of conduct for the addict in the game. The three characteristics are that - if a person loses control/control of their game level if they prefer gaming more than other interests or activities and continue to play them despite knowing that it is harming them/they have negative effects on them.

It will be on the list, ie the addictive players of the game will be on the list that includes alcohol, marijuana, caffeine, nicotine, and gambling players, among whom also have psychological disturbances due to any addictive substance. In the case of addicted to the game, sitting in the house for two hours/dots to match two dots/points in front of the iPhone, or sitting in front of a custom made gaming PC, refers to all games related to gameplay. It is easy for a physician and psychiatric health/disease specialist to identify such a person, whether he is addicted to the game or not.

But that does not mean that all games will add addiction (addiction to games) and it will be identified as a mental health problem/disease. According to the draft, a person can be said to be addicted to the game only when the person will continue to play his game despite significant damage to his behavioral, family, social, educational, professional or other important areas. "In other words, personal relationships will be damaged and school Or it would be a big reason to interfere in institutional work.

Game psychology behind

Although there is a debate between the psychological community regarding the addiction to the game and in their opinion, gaming addiction is not a particular disease, but it can be called psychological distortion or change for some time. So far, the American Psychiatric Association has banned this gaming addiction as a disorder/disease and continues to study more about this issue. However, it is worth mentioning how much time spent by a gamer behind it and how it is spent to identify the problem. That is, it is possible to tell from the difference between playing a game of a common gamer and a gamer, whether a person is addicted to the game, even if and how the mental disorder tag will be used in that person.

A group of researchers from the University of Nottingham Trent University in the United Kingdom wrote in a part of the Journal of Ad behavioral Behavior published last summer, "Scientists and researchers need to create a distinction between someone who is not facing any problems in their daily life despite a lot of games being played, The effect is not above them Bong is another player who is playing a lot of games and is facing many problems in his daily life. "There are many stories about people whose gaming behavior has become problematic for their daily lives and addicted people have tightened into online games and they lost their jobs and Destroy important relationships for them too early Did you And this gaming is something that is like a very confused disease that spreads from one hand to the other through a hand.

According to the team of Nottingham Trent researcher, this gaming addiction may sometimes be a failure as a problem in some cases. For example, a person who is struggling with sadness, anxiety, and for the survival of any kind of alcohol, he has been addicted to the game by eliminating the addictive material so that he can keep himself away from the problem, ie, gaming in this case but himself is working as a relief to any problem .

Benefits and losses

According to Bruce Lee, international health assistant professor of Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, it is necessary to find out the levels/criteria of the threat (or helpful) of the game to play. Mr. Lee also wrote in a column for Forbes', "Gaming habits can be mentally beneficial."

Predictably, playing games according to the study can relieve things like sadness, anxiety, increase the problem of problem-solving, and increase characteristics such as a striking combination between eyes and eyes. Technology, which we are thinking of using for gaming, such as Virtual Reality, which we can use for psychological therapies. However, people are still struggling to find a balanced/suitable time for the game, so that there will be no fear of loss. However, researchers are still trying to understand the risks of this gaming activity and its effects. Because it has recently revealed such a common characteristic and 63% of American households are going out at least one gamer, which was not even a generation or a few decades ago.
