Gambling
A gambling disorder can affect almost anyone. It impacts people of every age, sex, race, ethnicity, religion, geography, and socioeconomic groups.
For many, gambling is fun and entertaining. But for others, gambling has caused them to lose things they value most—family, friends, home, jobs, savings, car, business, and other things of importance in their lives.
- Gambling more often and spending more money
- Gambling for longer periods of time
- Gambling in spite of negative consequences, such as large losses or poor academic performances
- Gambling as means to cope with loneliness, anxiety, or depression
- Committing illegal acts or lying in order to sustain the gambling
