NHS addiction clinic launches for people addicted to online computer games Doctors are set to launch the first NHS internet addiction clinic amid fears over dangerous online video games.
The clinic will help adults and children with gaming disorders, with children as young as nine needing help for addictions to violent video games such as Fortnite.
If approved by managers, it will be run by an NHS foundation trust in London, and could also help people obsessed with pornography and social media.
