One common pattern is neglecting real - life responsibilities. For example, not going to work or school regularly. Another is the deterioration of relationships as they focus more on the game than on family and friends.

I heard about a girl who became addicted to an online multiplayer game. She started to isolate herself from the outside world. She would rather play the game than engage in any social activities. Her sleep pattern was completely disrupted. She only realized how bad it was when she started to have mental health issues like anxiety and depression due to the excessive gaming.

Gaming addiction could lead to a variety of psychological problems, such as anxiety, depression, and inferiority. Addicts often used games as an important source of self-identity. They could not find self-identity in real life and were even ostracized. They could only find a sense of identity and release from games. Some children who were placed with high hopes and strict requirements were easily rebellious after puberty and used games as a means to fight against their parents. When they invested too much energy in the game, they would feel powerless when facing other things such as studying, resulting in anxiety. They would lie flat while feeling anxious. The more anxious they were, the more they felt that they could not do other things well. In the perception of gaming addiction, games were not only entertainment, but also a symbol of belonging. They felt accepted, loved, and recognized in the game. Once they left the game, they might experience withdrawal symptoms such as emptiness, anxiety, and difficulty in communicating with others. In addition, game addiction may lose themselves in real life, reduce their self-discipline, induce hostility, and when they encounter setbacks, they are more inclined to escape into the game world instead of actively facing the challenges in real life.

One horror story is about a young man who started using heroin. He lost his job as he was constantly late or absent due to being high or in withdrawal. His family disowned him as he stole from them to buy drugs. Eventually, he ended up on the streets, living in squalor and suffering from various health problems like abscesses and a weakened immune system.

One horror story is about a teenager who was so addicted to online gaming. He neglected his real - life relationships, stopped going to school regularly, and his health deteriorated. He barely ate or slept, just focused on leveling up in the game. Eventually, he failed most of his school subjects and lost touch with his friends who were tired of his absence.
