What is a gambling addiction?
It’s when the urges to gamble are so strong that you do it even though you know it’s going to damage your health and cause financial problems . Many people say they can’t stop gambling from the moment they get up to the moment they go to bed. Some are so ashamed of their gambling they hide it away from others. Often the financial stress of gambling is overwhelming and you’ve got yourself into so much debt that you feel the only way to get out of it is to continue to gamble.
