I think gaming addiction is a serious problem, but come on, not everybody playing games has severe mental health problems. There're a lot of addicts you know. Gaming; shopping; gambling; drugs; sex; work; exercising (!); tanning. I think addicts might have common genes though that make them suscpeptible to addiction. There're studies which support this.
Note not about exercising. There're people who run for miles everyday and can't miss a day of exercise. They HAVE to do it. They say it makes them feel good. I think the reason nobody notices is because .... it's exercise. Problem is if someone is exercising so much it can have negative consequences on other things if they neglect. I do agree though that gaming or computer-use in general are particularly somewhat social-avoidant. It's not merely something which can become an addiction. Even if you chat online, you're not actually interacting directly with people. People who avoid others and go on the computer might have mental disorders or problems which make them do this. I knew a person in HS who spent hours eveyrday programming, not necessarily gaming. Addiction to programming? Maybe. But the point was this dude spent a lot of time on computers. He was avoiding people intentionally. The same guy also liked to read, sometimes a lot. He'd shut in somewhere and get buried in the book for hours. It's the computer itself which becomes addicting, not necessarily the games. It's an escape from social pressures or from failings brought on by mental disorders or health problems or similar. That guy never seemed HAPPY to me. He didn't have a girl friend. He didn't have many friends which I knew of. One of those invisible class mates who repels others.
