The Increase in Addiction during COVID-19

This is a peer-reviewed entry published in Encyclopedia Journal, full entry can be found at https://doi.org/10.3390/encyclopedia1040095

The increase in addiction during COVID-19 is a condition that emerged as an aftermath of COVID-19-related events, for instance, fear of the spread of COVID-19, self-abstention from many activities, and restrictions established by the lockdown measures. This condition includes substance addictions such as drugs and alcohol but also behavioral addictions such as gambling, gaming, pornography, and smartphone and internet misuse.
