Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD) is a behavioral condition characterized by excessive or compulsive use of online video games, leading to significant impairment in personal, social, educational, or occupational functioning. Individuals with IGD may lose control over their gaming habits, prioritize gaming over other important activities, and continue playing despite negative consequences. The disorder can result in disrupted sleep, poor academic or work performance, and strained relationships. Recognized by the World Health Organization and the American Psychiatric Association, IGD is an emerging mental health concern, especially among adolescents and young adults. Early identification and intervention are crucial for effective management and prevention.
