Video games can stimulate the minds of all people who find the particular game interesting. Though some games may not have the same effect. Typically those who have ADHD often enjoy playing video games as they are stimulating parts of the brain associated with reward. Gaming gives instant rewards to those who enjoy playing them and so it can become quite addictive. Because those with ADHD may find this particularly rewarding, they often find themselves hyper-focussing on it. They can easily find themselves addicted to the game to ensure a consistant feeling of appraisal. Video games do not cause ADHD but may cause problems such as withdrawal (ie, from socialisation), or addiction. Limited time should be advised so as to avoid these types of problems.
