Gambling Addiction Help and Treatment

Gambling addiction might appear to be less harmful than substance abuse, but this widespread problem can come with some serious consequences. What often starts as a form of entertainment can quickly lead to a need to win back losses or gain a significant payout. The addiction makes walking away from a losing streak seem impossible, leading to a pattern that can jeopardize financial stability, relationships and physical safety.

The signs of a gambling problem that needs help:

  • Inability to stop a gambling session.
  • Lying about the frequency or size of bets.
  • Betting with money that is needed to live.
  • Strained relationships caused by betting.
  • Going into debt as a result of gambling.
  • Missing work or important events to gamble.
  • Stopping previous hobbies to gamble.
  • Irritability when trying to stop gambling.
  • Gambling when feeling stressed.

There is help and treatment for gambling addiction.

Gambling is a widespread problem that can cause patients to spend large amounts of money to reach a high. Addiction left untreated can lead to the spending life savings and children’s college funds and even loans that prove impossible to pay off. This is why this addiction needs to be treated as seriously as substance abuse.

 

To treat a gambling problem, the patient needs a space that removes them from the triggers and stressors that cause the impulse to gamble and counsellors that can walk them through the gambling rehab process.

 

No matter how difficult it may feel, it is possible to stabilize your life and walk away from a gambling addiction.
