*DISCLAIMER* We are not mental health professionals. We are simply stating our opinions and having a conversation about mental health in gaming.  This is Part 1 in our mental health series on Gaming and Mental Health. In this episode, we discuss gaming disorder and gaming addiction. Is gaming disorder legitimate, or just an excuse? Can people really be addicted to gaming, or just escapism in general? Can gaming be as addictive as drugs? Are video games really to blame for addiction, or are there underlying factors involved?
