Computer Game Addiction
Rehab 4 Addiction
Rehab 4 Addiction offers a comprehensive 28-day computer gaming rehabilitation programme for those suffering from gaming addiction. The very idea of ‘gaming rehab’ was laughable a short 15 years ago. This addiction is a relatively new phenomena.
New technologies have sparked a vast increase in the number of gamers, particularly ‘online’ gamers. The gaming industry is mighty. Even the filming industry is dwarfed by the size of the gaming industry.
This has caused a corresponding increase in the number of people who have developed a gaming addiction and now require professional rehabilitation services to get better.
Gaming addiction rehabilitation is now well-established and recognised by the scientific and medical community. Gaming addiction has many negative consequences, including family breakdown and child neglect.
In fact, gaming addiction is often as destructive as substance abuse. If you or a loved one suffer from gaming addiction, please read the below message very carefully.
