Problem Gambling

Individuals may not know that their gambling is getting out of control.  A common reaction is to minimize, hide or deny gambling problems and downplay the negative effects it could be causing.  Some people will go to great lengths to cover up and lie to themselves and others about how much money or time is being spent on gambling.  Not all people who gamble excessively are alike, nor are the problems they face. People with gambling problems are found in all age groups, income groups, cultures and jobs. Some people develop gambling problems suddenly, others over many years.

Problem gambling is not only about the loss of money—it may impact a person’s mental and physical health, personal relationships with family and friends, how one functions at work, and changes in activities and priorities.  Most people find themselves in over their head with financial debt and often times think about suicide as a ‘way out.’
