Usually if you dump everything just to game, you're addicted in a bad way and need to take a very long break. Everything in moderation.

I’ll like to add that the warning signs also include continued gaming despite negative consequences and using gaming as an escape from stress or emotions. This indicates the reason for not letting games control our life.

Warning signs can be anything from violence to depression. I know I was getting addicted when I started neglecting my responsibility, using games to suppress my emotions or stress, tolerance and loss of interest in other things I do with my friends.

Skipping meals or sleep to keep playing. Getting irritable when you can't log in. Lying about how much time you spend. Letting chores, work, or relationships slide. Playing to escape bad feelings more than for fun. And trying to cut back but failing. If a few of these sound familiar, might be worth looking at honestly.

When you start losing control over play time, neglect responsibilities, and feel unable to stop despite negative effects, that's an addiction. When you are irritated when not gaming, and when you use games to escape stress, and losing interest in other activities, that is also an addiction.
