Gaming Gone Too Far Signs You Might Have Internet Gaming Disorder

In this lecture, Dr. Rodgir Cohen explores how gaming, one of the world’s favorite pastimes, can turn from a fun escape into a serious behavioral issue known as Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD).

You’ll learn:
✅ What defines Internet Gaming Disorder according to the DSM-5-TR
✅ How excessive gaming impacts the brain, behavior, and relationships
✅ Risk factors linked to family conflict, poor communication, and emotional stress
✅ Signs that gaming has crossed the line from hobby to harm
✅ Practical solutions — from positive parenting to therapy and digital balance strategies

Whether you’re a parent, teacher, student, or gamer yourself, this talk will help you recognize the warning signs and learn how to build a healthier relationship with gaming and technology.

🎯 Remember: It’s not the number of hours you play — it’s what you lose when you can’t stop.
