[quote=artix]You could play games for x hours straight, its a type of entertainment. I dont think there is any harm in it if you know the limits and the boundary between real life and the virtual life. However, the problem starts when you let the entertainment consume you. The point where something casual, a spare time thing becomes a necessity, a part of your life that you can't exist without. The point in the article sums it up to me completely. Where the guy would stop bathing and brushing his teeth. When you get to a stage like that you need to take a big step back and take a good long look at yourself. Not just at what you're becoming but also at where you're headed if you continue.

I think that the thing that makes you an addict is suffering from symptoms associated with withdrawal like those in the article. I don't get withdrawal if I stop playing games so I'm not an addict, I game when I'm bored for a few minutes so I can safely say that I don't compulsively game either. I know the limit, I know my priorities and I put my real life goals and responsibilities before some in game achievement or benefit. I can go 30 mins without contemplating suicide. But the question is, how many of you are addicts? The first stage of rehab is accepting that you are addicted, only then can you start the path on to a cleaner remainder of your existence.[/quote]
