I can understand how living alone and dealing with personal struggles can lead to game addiction as a form of escape. When someone feels isolated and emotionally overwhelmed, gaming can become a way to avoid painful thoughts, suppress emotions, and fill the void of loneliness. Over time, this habit turns into an addiction, where the person relies on games for comfort and loses interest in real-life activities, relationships, and responsibilities. The mental distress they are already facing only intensifies the need to escape, making it even harder to break free from the cycle. The key to overcoming gaming addiction is to first address the underlying emotional pain. Therapy can help identify personal struggles, process emotions in a healthy way, and build a structured daily routine that creates balance between gaming and real-life responsibilities. Encouraging social interactions, physical activity, and new hobbies can also help break the cycle of isolation. If the person is resistant to change, gradual steps—such as setting gaming time limits, scheduling offline activities, and seeking emotional support—can make a big difference. They don’t have to go through this alone, and support is available.
