I felt that playing video games excessively can lead to social disconnection and a lack of social interaction, which can have long-term consequences. Addicted gamers may neglect personal relationships, leading to a lack of social skills and difficulty in developing and maintaining healthy relationships. Video game addiction can also lead to social anxiety, loneliness, and poor social skills, which can result in a worse quality of life. However, some researchers suggest that video games can be a way for young adults to cope with feelings of loneliness and anxiety and that the opposite of gaming disorder is not getting rid of video games, but rather increasing social connection and engagement in healthier social activities.

You’re getting a lot of downvotes because Lemmy members game and don’t like it when the things they like are talked about negatively.
This may be truth but I down voted because addiction and gaming were thrown into the same pot. You have to differentiate this topics a little… It’s the same like: car drivers don’t give a crap about the environment and drive like a*holes or people interested in football are drunken hooligans…
Too much of something is literally almost bad for a person.
Edit: plus it’s posted in a gaming community too
