Thirteen miles away from the Microsoft headquarters in Washington State, an internet, texting and online video game clinic has opened to help users heal from patterns of addiction. The program, entitled reSTART Internet Addiction Recovery Program, provides a 45-day intensive care program for game, Internet, and texting addicts.
Similar programs serve as inspiration for this US based clinic. Amsterdam and China already have clinics that treat addiction for internet and online video games such as the ever popular World of Warcraft. World of Warcraft was blamed for an increase in college drop outs by the FCC Commissioner and the college board.
A study in the month of August by the US Center for Disease Control found that gamers had a higher chance of being overweight and suffer mental health problems. A British psychiatrist announced plans of creating an addiction team and going "in-game" to treat addiction and gamer ills.
