A Process addiction is characterized by the compulsive nature of the behavior, with examples such as gambling, gaming, and internet surfing etc., While those excessively using digital technology may not exhibit physical symptoms of abuse or addiction, they may face negative consequences when such behavior disturbs their daily lives.

Many people enjoy playing video or online games, investing hours in this hobby. For some, it remains a harmless pastime, allowing them to maintain other interests and social connections. However, for others, this passion for gaming can escalate into a harmful addiction, akin to substance addictions like drugs or alcohol

Indications of problematic gaming and its impact may include:

* Restlessness or irritability when not gaming
