Symptoms

Identifying the signs and symptoms of gambling addiction is crucial for early intervention. Symptoms often include:

• A preoccupation with gambling and planning the next opportunity to gamble
• Needing to gamble with increasing amounts of money to feel excitement
• Repeated unsuccessful attempts to control, cut back on, or stop gambling
• Restlessness or irritability when attempting to cut down on gambling
• Gambling to escape problems or relieve feelings of helplessness, guilt, anxiety, or depression
• Chasing losses with more gambling
• Lying to family members, therapists, or others to conceal the extent of involvement with gambling
• Jeopardizing or losing significant relationships, jobs, or educational or career opportunities because of gambling
• Relying on others for money to relieve desperate financial situations caused by gambling

Early recognition of these symptoms can lead to timely and effective treatment and prevention of the progression of gambling issues.

Gambling addiction can lead to significant and severe problems affecting various aspects of an individual’s life. These include:

• Financial Issues: Severe debt, the loss of savings, or the occurrence of theft and fraud to fund gambling activities.
• Relationship Problems: Strain on relationships with loved ones due to financial stress, deception, and the neglect of family responsibilities.
• Legal Problems: Potential criminal charges related to fraud, theft, or other means of obtaining funds for gambling.
