However, video games are meant to be played for entertainment and the willingness to win some games but shouldn’t become a need for any players. When people begin to feel frustrated or incapable of thinking of anything else, that’s where the danger appears.

         <description><![CDATA[<div><br><br>What is it?<br><br>Sports addiction is a condition in which the affected individual feels a compulsion to engage in sport or physical exercise regardless of any negative consequences this may have on their physical and mental health and upon any other aspects of their life.<br><br>Signs:<br><br>Mood changes: Exercise becomes 'unhealthy when the inability to exercise causes mood changes. Feelings of guilt, anger or irritability may arise when a person is unable to engage in physical activity<br><br>Fear of stopping or reducing exercise: People may have an overwhelming fear of the negative consequences that may result if they stop or reduce exercise; such has becoming fat, or a feeling as of an inability to cope. <br><br>Strict exercise rules: A common sign of obsessive-compulsive exercise is following rigid exercise rules to avoid negative consequences. These are often linked with food consumption. For instance, a person might decide they should spend extra time exercising if they ate something unhealthy, or miss a meal if they do not exercise.<br><br>Setting difficult exercise goals: A fitness goal such as losing excess weight, training for a race or gaining muscle is healthy. Exercise goals become unhealthy when they are unrealistic and inflexible Failure to meet high standards often leads to self-criticism, heightened anxiety and negative feelings. Skipping other engagements: Exercise becomes compulsive when physical activity becomes the<br><br>central focus of a person's thoughts to such an extent that it takes precedence over other<br><br>responsibilities. People may spend too much time thinking about, planning and engaging in exercise<br><br>that they miss social engagements, or it gets in the way of work or study.<br><br>Exercising in poor health or circumstances: While an injury or illness may cause a healthy exercising person to rest and recover an obsessive-compulsive exerciser will continue to workout even when it is detrimental to their physical health. The compulsion will motivate them to exercise even in bad weather despite the increased risk of other infections or ailments.<br><br>Common symptoms of exercise addiction include:<br><br>feeling buzzed after exercising<br><br>experiencing withdrawal symptoms after long periods without exercise<br><br>experiencing uncontrollable desires to exercise reducing activities in other areas of life to make time for exercise spending long periods of time preparing for, and recovering from, exercise experiencing an inability to stick with a reduced exercise routine<br><br>Causes:It's often a result of body image disorders and eating disorders. Exercise releases endorphins and dopamine. These are the same neurotransmitters released during drug use. An exercise addict feels reward and joy when exercising. When they stop exercising, the neurotransmitters go away. An addict has to exercise more to trigger the chemical release.<br><br>Solutions, treatments, advice:<br><br>In most cases, self-control is necessary to treat exercise addiction. An addict acknowledges that they have a problem and takes steps to control exercise activity. Exercise addicts often switch to new forms of exercise or moderate their current workouts. An exercise addict may need to stop exercising for a time to gain control of the desire to exercise</div>]]></description>
