Gaming Dependency explores the growing concern of gaming addiction, a behavioral addiction impacting mental health and social well-being. It examines how gaming habits can evolve into problematic gaming, driven by psychological factors like reward systems and escapism. Did you know that gaming addiction shares similarities with substance addiction in terms of brain activity and behavioral patterns? This book uniquely combines psychology, sociology, and neuroscience to offer a comprehensive view, differentiating healthy gaming from dependency.

The book progresses logically, first defining gaming addiction using diagnostic criteria and then delving into contributing psychological factors like cognitive distortions and social isolation. For instance, the book elucidates how gaming can become a coping mechanism for emotional regulation difficulties.

Readers will appreciate the book's evidence-based approach, drawing from case studies and research to support its arguments. It culminates in practical strategies for treatment and relapse prevention, providing resources for individuals, families, and mental health professionals.
