Video game addiction is now classified as a mental disorder

>video game hobbyists are mentally ill
Now did the article actually say that?

>video games is a mental health disorder
No need to thank me, trannytard. Go dilate.

If you skip school or work to play vidya for 14 hours a day then yeah. It's the same as drinking until your liver is fucked.

So the article literally says if you play a video game you're mentally ill?

can't take them seriously, this classification doesn't mean much if you aren't some fake fucker

Literally WHO

being a tranny isnt :^)

Please make Yea Forums addiction a disorder already so I can shitpost for taxpayer's money.

people get addicted to things that make them feel good, what a shocker

This. I thought I'd miss out on my daily dose of posts like , or , but thankfully there's another thread for me to post in.

Doesn't work if it's self-inflicted.

I can call each and everyone one of you retards and it would be 100% true.

>employer asks me what I do in my spare time
>tell them I do nothing but play video games
>they don't hire me
>can sue them for discrimination

There's nothing wrong with this as long as the criteria meets the addiction definition. I don't know why this needs so many threads.

>Oy vey, the goyim would rather have fun than work for us! There must be something wrong with them!

Not until 2022 and you must fulfill a huge list of things for an entire year straight to be considered. Even then, good luck it meaning anything more than rehab.

It's not, i'm mentally ill. I need that cheese to survive

Define "addiction" please.

Begging HIV positive strangers to gangbang you bareback isn't considered mental illness, but playing too many videogames is.

>rehab
nah, maybe monthly visits to a psychologist and evaluation from a psychiatrist every 6 months
probably some antidepressants for a year and if you're lucky, benzos for a month

How dare you commit a hate crime so brazenly. I hope you enjoy your sentence of 90 days getting your holes poz'd

making fun of gamers is ableism

>ask boss if I can take my dilation break
>he says I have only 5 minutes like every other healthy person

just goes to show the GAMERS were RIGHT all along there's a MASSIVE global CONSPIRACY designed to ISOLATE and SHAME the GAMER population into SUBMISSION to the STATE

GAMERS RISE UP

The most accepted definitions include the following points:
1) dependence, which means you basically can't quit the stuff without developing symptoms
2) tolerance, which means dedicating a whole lotta time to the stuff and eventually needing more
3) having a notable impact in your life, rendering you dysfunctional either with or without the stuff, but directly caused by it
In most definitions, they require all 3 of them to be present in a period of 12 months, tho it varies with substances.
Most people are idiots, and believe use = addiction.
