Video games make a positive impact.
“One way video gaming has positively impacted my life is I just get to focus on the tasks that I’m doing in the game or just have fun with whatever it is I’m doing and makes things easier. It keeps me in touch with friends and family that I’m not able to see at the time or talk to how I used to. The adaptive controller setup allows me to sharpen some of the abilities I’ve learned in therapy and acted as another form of therapy.” – Jon M.

Playing video games is a valuable social activity that helps reduce social isolation by connecting people across distances and diverse backgrounds. Through multiplayer games, online communities, and cooperative gameplay, individuals can interact, collaborate, and build friendships. These virtual interactions provide a sense of belonging and support, fostering meaningful connections that transcend physical barriers. By engaging in shared gaming experiences, players can combat loneliness and create a supportive social network, making video games a powerful tool for enhancing social well-being.
