GAMBLING DISORDER
When people are in the throes of unhealthy gambling, attempting to simply walk away from a losing streak can seem impossible.
Gambling addiction is a widespread problem with serious consequences. People who gamble compulsively can engage in increasingly risky behaviour, jeopardising their financial stability, personal relationships, employment, and even their physical safety. As with other addictions, issues with gambling are best treated in their early stages, before patterns become deeply ingrained. This is why treatment is critically necessary in ending the compulsion to gamble and to help stabilise people’s lives.
SIGNS OF A GAMBLING PROBLEM
- Can’t stop thinking about gambling and can’t quit.
- Lying or hiding gambling activities.
- Keep gambling despite bad outcomes.
- Feel uneasy when not gambling.
- Life and responsibilities getting messed up.
- Get defensive when asked about gambling.
- Steal or do illegal things to fund gambling.
- Feel genuinely guilty or sorry after gambling.
