Summary

In an era of omnipresent digital connectivity, gaming has evolved from a casual pastime into a global phenomenon. However, with this rise, a darker aspect has emerged: Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD). Game Over delves deeply into this modern affliction, exploring its complexities and impacts on mental health.

Authored by experts in psychology and behavioral sciences, this comprehensive guide demystifies IGD, examining the fine line between recreational gaming and addiction. Through rigorous research and real-life case studies, the book uncovers how excessive gaming can lead to severe psychological and social consequences, including anxiety, depression, and deteriorating relationships.

Beyond merely identifying the problem, *Game Over* is a beacon of hope for those affected by IGD. It provides practical strategies and therapeutic approaches for overcoming addiction. Readers will find actionable advice on setting boundaries, seeking professional help, and building a balanced life away from the screen.

Whether you are a concerned parent, a mental health professional, or someone struggling with gaming addiction, *Game Over* offers the knowledge and tools necessary to reclaim control and foster healthier habits. This essential read sheds light on the growing issue of IGD and empowers readers to take meaningful steps toward recovery and mental well-being.
