  1. I don't fully agree. I'm not likely to get addicted to video games anymore. As a child I kind of was, I often preferred video games over social contacts, and was looking forward to playing video games again, when coming home from school. But nowadays it's different. I know, I'd like to play a good video game, but most games aren't good enough, and it's a bit exhausting to start new games. Even if I know, I have some game I like, and would like to continue, I often don't, because I have better things to do. The thing, that's most likely to stop me from having social contacts are creative ideas. When I have some idea, I can get really motivated, and need to write it down, maybe write a program, and I want to finish it, before I lose motivation. And in such a phase, I try to avoid everything else, which might stop my progress, not just eating and porn, also social contacts often take away a lot of time. While playing games, I also can't eat, like I often do in an unhealthy way while watching Youtube. Games can also be a good motivation for standing up early instead of staying in bed for another hour and watching porn. I think, it kind of depends on the game and on you. If you play it, just because it is fun, because it tells some nice story or you learn something from it, and not because of addiction, it should be fine. If it stops you from eating too much, while watching Youtube, it's also not that bad. So it also is important, what you do else.
