Problem Gambling

What is problem gambling?

Problem Gambling is when a person’s gambling, causes harm to themselves and/or to those around them, such as a partner, family or friends.

When gambling begins to consume more money and time than a person can afford, it can affect many parts of their lives, including physical and emotional health, finances, relationships, work and study.

Ask yourself:

• Have you ever felt the need to bet more and more money?
• Have you ever had to lie to people who were important to you about how much you gambled?

If you answered ‘yes’ to one or both of those questions, you may well have a gambling problem.
