Yes, there is an association between online games or Internet addiction and
loneliness or social anxiety, even depression. Our research found a solution to this
problem. Hence, we carry out capacity building by prioritizing mental health recovery
through family communication patterns that balance online and offline life. Parents
must be sensitive to their children^s condition, especially adolescents, and parents
should not be addicted to online activities. Several similar studies with our research
findings also support the same thing, but the methodologies we use, such as action
research and ethnography, are much more unique and novelty. We prove it from
capacity-building activities in the field. Thank you, Ms. Tamimi Zakirah.
