The first sign is when the player loses c4. over his or her gaming habits. The second is when playing games becomes more important than other a5. for the player. The third is when the condition leads to serious problems in the player’s personal and family life.

Many experts have welcomed the decision. It is believed that new ways to t6. this disorder will appear following the WHO classification.

In fact, some countries are already working to s7. this problem.

Chinese tech company Tencent is also setting limits (限制) on the a8. of time that teenagers can play its games. Children between 12 and 18 years old can only play two hours per day.

If you have “gaming disorder", you should-ask for professional medical help. But you can Use delayed gratification (延迟满足)to d9. with it, if your condition is not that serious, the National Institute Of Education Sciences pointed that out.

For example, if you tell yourself not to play any video games on weekdays, you can allow yourself to play for three hours during the weekend. Or if you really want to play them after school, you can tell yourself that you cannot do so u10. you have finished your homework.
