ADDICTION: SOCIAL COMMUNITY
Video Game Addiction

Video Game Addiction

I know this says "Substance" abuse and addiction, but I dont know where to post a question about video game addiction. I KNOW my fiance USED to be addicted to video games (both computer and PS3) before I met him. I know this for a fact and he's flat-out admitted it. I'm afraid things are starting to get to that point again... I'm not sure though. I LOVE video games too, but for the sake of our growing relationship and with our conflicting schedules, I only play when he is not around and if I dont have anything else to do. Because we are both home alone often enough to where that should be sufficient! But he plays all the time! I mean... doesnt 12-15 hours/week sound a little excessive?? I dont know... I dont want to blab too much and go in to extensive details about why I feel this way, but man.... I dont know what to say or do. I am getting so frustrated! And worse... I'm getting so disgusted! Where now it's like I look at him and I'm thinking to myself, "ew... really? Get a life, will ya". Kinda like... "What a piece of S**T"... UGH!

Well you are right. This isn't a substance abuse issue. A good word of advice is to seek some counseling for him and you. This can affect oyur lives together as a married couple.
I am not sure but the OCD forum might be another place to ask this question. They are here.    http://www.medhelp.org/forums/show/231
