Delve into your gaming habits to discern if they're just a hobby or something more. This assessment aids in understanding the impact of gaming on your daily life, relationships, and overall well-being. Recognize the signs, find the balance.

After the test — here’s what happens

Your score becomes the opening line of a clinical conversation, not an endpoint.

  1. Consultation

    A care coordinator calls (or WhatsApps, your choice). You tell us what’s going on — no forms, no pressure.

  2. Expert Psychiatrist

    We book you with a psychiatrist who is a leading authority in this condition — not a generalist.

  3. Assessment

    If the psychiatrist recommends it, a senior clinical psychologist runs in-depth assessments before we shape the plan.

  4. Therapy + Medicine

    Structured therapy with a senior clinical psychologist when indicated, plus medication adherence support — both coordinated by the same team.

  5. Ongoing care

    Medication reviews, therapy adjustments, and continuity of care — the same team stays with you as things evolve.
