Sites examining eating disorders from a Mental Health perspective should submit their site here .

For most people, eating is a pleasurable experience. It's a biological necessity that most cultures have elevated to a high social status. But for some, eating is a compulsion. Men and women of all ages force themselves to eat too much or too little, and suffer tremendous psychological pain when they do. Eating, body weight and image become an obsession that damages relationships and has serious medical consequences.

Please only list your site here if it is related to gaming addictions or gaming addicts. If your site deals with addiction in general or multiple types of addictions then please consider submitting your website to a more general category.

Gaming addiction has been recognised as a serious problem for many years. It is noted as being particularly addictive when it concerns Massive Multiplayer Online Games, where many addicts retreat in to an online universe to the exclusion of all else.
In particularly serious cases gaming addiction has led to the break up of marriages and families, the loss of jobs and in some cases even suicide.

Substance Abuse

This category is reserved for web sites that pertain to general information on substance abuse. Only the most comprehensive and authoritative sites are listed here. Other sites about substance abuse in general belong in Health/Addictions/Substance_Abuse/Resources. If the site you are submitting is a counseling center, rehab, half-way house, treatment facility, or therapy service, please do NOT submit here. Please submit such sites to the proper local subcategory under Health/Addictions/Substance_Abuse/Centers_and_Counseling_Services

If you are submitting a support group website (e.g., AA, NA, ACOA, Al-Anon, etc.) please find the appropriate local subcategory under Health/Addictions/Substance_Abuse/Alcoholism/Support_Groups or the more general Health/Addictions/Substance_Abuse/Support_Groups

Note that some of these categories are further divided such that there are subcategories for individual countries and states.

It is important for you to find the most specific subcategory so we can speed up the process of getting your site listed. Otherwise, we have to waste a great deal of time sorting. The more specific the subcategory of entry, the quicker the site will get listed.

It may help to conduct a directory-search by entering keywords in a search box, which appear on every page. Try to find a specific and local subcategory that contains sites similar to the one you wish to submit.
