Seek Help When Negative Effects Multiply
Recognizing when gaming or similar activities become a problem involves observing their impact on multiple areas of a person's life. Signs such as withdrawal from social activities and changes in commitment to hobbies indicate a need for help. If the individual still meets responsibilities and maintains good performance in other areas, their enthusiasm for gaming may not be problematic. Society often applies double standards in labeling interests as addictions, particularly contrasting gaming with socially accepted passions like sports. The crucial point is to assess whether an activity negatively affects various aspects of life, signaling potential addiction.
