Playing video games too much and too often will soon be recognized as a mental health disorder.

Gaming Disorder will be added to the official list of diseases by the World Health Organization next year.

Symptoms include the inability to control when and how to play video games.

Another red flag is when someone picks games over other interests in life and keeps playing despite negative consequences.

The decision does not mean that playing games in itself is a problem.

However, experts say it should all be seen in the context -- where, why and how much someone plays.

Adding Gaming Disorder to the list means that it will be recognized by doctors and insurance companies.

No Atari for you tonight Joey! You got school in the morning!

but Joey didn't listen, and quickly inserted his new space invaders game which included unknown secret code embedded right in the game... as Joey laughed and laughed the code quickly took over his dopamine receptors... Joey didn't notice at the time because he was riding the highway to the pleasure zone... now, many moons later, Joey is still looking for that quick fix that will never again come... finally leading him to suicide as his only answer...

RIP JOEY, our good friend.
