Compulsive gaming is the pathological over-consumption of gaming activity. It is compulsive when gaming becomes an obsession and the predominant focus of one's life.
Compulsive gamers invest excessive time and money in gaming activity and neglect other areas of life such as family, recreational interests and career. In a process that generally takes several years, compulsive gamers ultimately lose all of their social contacts and, as a result, their self-respect and self-confidence.
