From a Manager of the clinical arm of the Problem Gambling Institute of Ontario at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health. (Works with)... behavioural addictions, including problem gambling and problem video gaming / internet use.
"#GamerGate is a disturbing window into some aspects of gamer culture, as are some of the more violent video games. I think #GamerGate is a particularly blatant example of the widespread struggle in online media to address the entitlement that anonymity brings. There are elements in common with women's experience of street harrassment, and of bullying, misogyny and racism both online and off. The stress and misery caused by these behaviours does indeed affect mental health."
