Behavioral Addictions: Gambling, Internet, and Gaming Disorders
Unlike substance dependencies, behavioral addictions such as gambling, internet, and gaming disorders do not involve external intoxicants but still trigger profound neurological and psychological responses. These conditions have garnered increasing attention due to their rising prevalence among adolescents and adults alike. Behavioral addictions: gambling, internet, and gaming disorders are now recognized in global diagnostic manuals, prompting more targeted clinical responses. Advances in functional MRI studies show overlapping pathways with substance use, including reward-seeking and impulse regulation. Treatment often involves cognitive-behavioral therapy and digital detox strategies, coupled with psychoeducation and community support. The rise of online platforms has further complicated these disorders, demanding updated frameworks in both research and policy.
