Really? So basically every male on earth who can look at the internet is his client then.. So shouldn't he be the richest man on earth? Lol I like how some people here have their owns scale of what equals addiction "omg if you play more then 8 hours then you have no life" what an idiot. I agree with Neutral, let people do what the hell they want too as long as it doesn't interfere with your own life in some dramatic way.

When i'm at home/bored i play games, sure i play them alot, i play everything, from MMORPG's to FPS's to Strategy. The thing is i have my gamer friends and my social friends, my social friends keep me sane and i trust them, my gaming friends are there for a laugh and to relate with my gaming. I find it perfectly fine to game 8 hours in a day, because i get 2 choices, i can go out with my mates, or play games with my other mates. People need to realise gaming is becoming more well known, its not something to be ashamed of, are people ashamed of smoking? maybe so? isnt that an addiction? its not cool is it? Games are portrayed as nerdy yet they boost the imagination and relieve alot of stress. I wouldn't know about hardcore, because that is at a proffesional level. Figures, its your life, i know mine, i probably won't play games like i do when i finish school. But still, everyone has a addiction/something they enjoy a whole lot, who cares what it is, wether its jacking one off or Killing virtual characters, or going out with mates, i dabble in the entire spectrum but its anyones choice to make, poisonous illusion my ass, wake up and get out and live life, its your life to live, if you want to follow a set of rules for your life read a bible, living a life is different in peoples perspective and if people choose to game 24/7 respect to them for not giving two flying F***s about what others think. Peace out. Game on.

It is like a poisonous illusion. Wake up and get out and live life!

Sitting around, smoking and snorting all day and drinking to boot. It doesn't make for the best of life. On the other hand, being a former hardcore gamer, I must say that I still play once in a while..... and I love it. I think a true gaming addiction would be an unhealthy lifestyle.

Maybe inverse shame. Meaning that more people are less ashamed of playing WoW too much than they would be for something else.

He only gets the patients that have parents that tell them they are losers for playing, or the one's that have a spouse that nags them until there ears want to fall off. That’s probably why the feel ashamed. I feel great. Gaming helps me relieve a lot of tension. I guess if I didn't have games to do that... I'd find something else. Probably not porn though. That gets pretty old... really fast. And it tends to make me feel like shit even after seeing it. I have been clean for a good while now and I didn't have help getting rid of it either. Maybe I should go kick a soccer ball or something :) Yea… this is stupid.
