If your a parent or have a friend and you think someone has a video game addiction you only want to get them help faster before it gets worse. First warning sign can be playing for increasing amounts of time, this is when someone is playing four hours or more on the computer. Second, thinking about gaming during other activities. For example, this is way kids grades in school are increasingly dropping because all there attention is on the video game and not on school work. Third, gaming to escape from real-life problems, anixety, or depression. Fourth, lying to friends and family to conceal gaming and your friends and family know you have a problem and you still hide it, and last feeling irritable when trying to cut down on gaming. When addicts try to limit there gaming you may notice them becoming more angry and sometimes violent.
Video game detox is an option and is similar to other detox with other additions. Its hard to get someone away from the computer because computers is important part of the every day life. It's like a food addiction, you have to learn to live with food. Detox centers try to make addicts understand to use the computer responsibility.
