Gaming the System: Gaming Addiction & Screen Time

005 - The Link Between Gaming and Depression


Listen Later

As someone that has struggled with both depression and gaming addiction, I've definitely had thought about whether or not they're connected.

I've even been asked a number of times "did gaming make you depressed?".

I've had a lot of time to think about this question, and that led me to make this podcast episode.

Spoilers: Gaming doesn't make you depressed.

However, being addicted to gaming is definitely fostering a perfect environment to amplify any existing problems you might have. The key is to build awareness and find balance.


I hope you enjoy the episode, and forget to leave a review if you're listening on Apple Podcasts, it means a lot to us.
