This affects the way you act and make decisions. Heroin affects your body. Heroin poses special problems for those who inject it because of the risks of HIV, hepatitis B and C, and other diseases that can occur from sharing needles.

     Extractions: (Tampa, FL) - A new study on adolescent video game addiction from the National Institute on Media and the Family suggests that 14 percent of 8th and 9th graders who play video games are addicted to the games. The study also found that 82 percent of adolescent video game addicts are male. According to the study, non-addicted adolescents play video games an average of 4.5 hours per week while addicted gamers play the games an average 21.6 hours per week. Measuring for time spent playing video games and patterns of addicted behavior, the study surveyed 607 Midwestern students from urban, suburban, rural, public and private schools. Based on the results of the survey, it appears that behavior of video game addicts is similar to behavior of people addicted to other things, including gambling and drugs.
