<p>Are you addicted to playing digital games?</p><p>Whether you want to <strong>(1)</strong> reclaim your life, <strong>(2)</strong> help a friend who is addicted to gaming, or <strong>(3)</strong> just understand the dangers of online gaming and how to minimize them<strong>, this book</strong> will teach you <strong>everything</strong> you need to know.</p><p>Every addiction has its consequences.</p><p>There are <u>negative consequences</u> to a gaming addiction. This book will help you fully <u>comprehend</u> the problems and learn how to help yourself or others <u>break out</u> of the addiction. Free yourself or others from unproductive behavior so <u>life</u> can be healthy and enjoyable again.</p><p>Get some perspective on your gaming addiction.</p><p>Online gaming is <u>fun</u>, there’s no doubt about it! Gaming can help you explore your personality, enhance your creativity, and sharpen your problem-solving skills. However, if your virtual reality starts to damage your <u>real-life interactions and health</u>, then you have a problem. That is what this book is designed to address. I wrote “Gaming Addiction” for the purpose of guiding you through the process of <u>evaluating</u> your gaming activities to determine what is helping you and what aspects of your game of choice are actually messing up your life. I know, I know, gaming <em>is</em> your life! But is it a life that will lead to <u>good things</u>, or will it ultimately take you to a place you don’t want to go? There is a healthy balance that can be attained.</p><p>Get the best out of both “worlds.”</p><p>You <em>can</em> get what you want out of life, yes, <u>real life</u>. It is possible to <u>continue to play</u> online and still have a happy family, loving relationships, meaningful work, and delightful social experiences. The challenge is not letting the draw of the game <u>overpower</u> what you <em>know</em> you need to do and who you want to be. It’s not healthy to spend <u>all</u> your time “checked out” from real life; some of the time it's okay to escape, but remember: while you’re escaping from your life, there’s <u>nobody else</u> out there who will <u>live it for you</u>.</p><p>Gaming as Avoidance</p><p>I get it. Sometimes life is just too harsh. We sometimes just need to get away. Yet, if you find yourself “escaping” to a virtual world to the point that you use your avatar more often than your real name, you’re in trouble. For those of us who don’t feel 100% confident around other people 100% of the time, it’s <u>easier</u> to just camp out in an alternate universe. However, it’s equally important to <u>resist</u> the temptation to spend <em>all</em> of your time there. While gaming can help improve social interaction (at least virtually), you need real world social interactions to truly grow and develop as a person. You also need real life social interaction to help avoid getting depressed. In this book I offer a variety ways you can take steps to <u>interact</u> <u>without hiding</u> behind an avatar.</p><p>What Will You Discover About Gaming Addictions?</p>
