John: Hi! I'm John. What are the warning signs of video game addiction injection, and what are the ways that preventing it?
Dr. Peter Yellowlees: Thank John. Well, the best way of finding out is somebody has got a problem, of course, is looking at how much time may spend actually on the game themselves. If they are spending time that actually is feting their life and causing them to do or exclude other things then clearly that's an issue. And as you well know, if you spend too much time on video games, you haven't gotten time for maybe sleep, for eating, for relationships, for friendships.
So, really it's a matter of how much you're spending on it, and one of the things on you doing. Now, in terms of solutions, the first thing is certainly talk to the person. Tell them that you think they're spending too much time, but in getting to involved and that they're missing out on other activities in their life. That's really the case, and then once you've done that if they actually will go with that; then obviously look at literally withdrawing them from some of their games and have them spending less time on their games is more of the amount of the time they spend, I'm delivery get them to other things with their life like sports, like getting out of those and seeing some sunlight.
