Welcome to Ogar: the Online Gaming Addiction Resource!

What can Ogar do for you?

Ogar was built for both gamers and non-gamers alike that are dealing with a loss of control over gaming. Whether you're seeking knowledge or help for yourself or for someone else, we want you to be successful.

This site contains several articles, research, and references to help inform and empower you in understanding and dealing with a game addiction or obsession.

While we understand that games can be rewarding, socially stimulating, and educational, we also know that excessive time spent gaming can lead to undesired conditions such as depression, anxiety, and unhappiness.

Navigate through the article database from the middle column. Article categories offer insight on:

--Games: history, genres, and MMORPGs
--Addiction: assessing, addressing, and coping
--Game Detox: support and tips for a successful /gamequit

We are also interested in hearing your story, whether you're just looking for a change or if you've overcome a battle with gaming. You'll find a story submission page here.

We look forward to hearing from you. Good luck, and welcome to Ogar!

Sincerely,

Big Chief Ogar
