My point, this creates more damage than it helps. Breaking a community of people who would otherwise be isolated, breaking people who are using gaming to cope. All because hysterical parents are having over the top "LOOK A GIANT ANT IS TAKING OVER THE CITY!" reaction to their child not looking up from their phone.
Thank you, LavenderLilac. You described very well, what I tried explain. Computer games can help someone like us. I also think that it ("gaming disorder" diagnosis) can harm to someone rather than help.

You're welcome!
