The multi-billion-dollar console, online, and esports industries are built upon users' dependence on ever-bigger thrills, more kills, more treasures, more conquests, higher scores, and ever-longer play times.  Watch as Insiders+ ACCESS host Luke Frazier talks it out with "Alex" about how video gaming can become an all-consuming addiction, and how SMART Recovery helped him overcome it and lead a more balanced life.
