Video gaming excessively may soon be labeled a mental health condition, according to World Health Organization (WHO).

The WHO will officially add gaming disorder to its list of psychological illnesses in 2018 such that people who play video games excessively may be diagnosed with the disorder.

According to U.S. News and World Report, health care workers and doctors will be able to diagnose someone with gaming disorder.

A professor at the University of Geneva, Switzerland, Daphne Bavelier, explained to Forbes magazine that not all who enjoy video games may have gaming disorder, adding that it depends on the game, how long and often you play it.

WHO explains that gaming only becomes an issue when it causes “impairment in personal, family, educational, occupational, social or other important aspects of life.

The fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) defined internet gaming disorder in 2013 as a “condition for further study.” This doesn’t classify it as an official disorder, rather one the American Psychiatric Association says needs more analysis.

Young males between the ages of 12 and 20 were mostly affected by the gaming condition, according to the DSM-5.
