Computer and PC Games

I was introduce to a brand new wii when I was 8 and since then I've got more and more games and consoles BUT more and more problems. I can't help playing when I shouldn't do, craving for more and it's got EVEN WORSE OVER THE YEARS. I still do it till this day and I'm desperate to stop but, I can't. I just can't get it out of my head and I'm in desperate need for help. It's also the same with Youtube. Any advice would be greatly apresiated. Chat to ya soon!

  • You don't say how old you are now? Still pretty young I'm guessing.

    There is such thing as gaming addiction, although I doubt it is taken as seriously as other addictions like drink and drugs, but there are professionals out there who can help. At the age I suspect you are you'd obviously need your parents help with that, although there might be a therapist/counsellor at school you could talk to? Perhaps if they agree you have a serious problem they can help your parents to help you deal with it.
