World Health Organization to recognize excessive gaming as mental illness

According to new reports, people who spend unreasonable hours playing video games may soon be diagnosed with a mental health disorder! The World Health Organization (WHO) has issued a statement that it will add gambling disorder to its international classification of diseases next year, which means that doctors can now diagnose mental illness if they play excessively to the video game. According to WHO, the problem comes when the game has priority over other interests and activities of life. The behavior must persist for at least a year to be diagnosed, however, this time can be shortened in severe cases.
