One of the biggest signs of gambling addiction is when you will use the money that you're supposed to eat and gamble, that's the height of it.

I don't gamble but one of my uncles is seriously addicted. He needs to gamble everyday. When he is out of money, he would make up all sorts of reasons to get someone he knows to lend him money. Everyone knows his trick. We haven't seen him in a long while.

Well, many people might suffer from gambling addiction and they may show mild signs. The mild form of addiction could turn into a full-blown addiction.

When a gambler borrow money from loan company to play bet, there is serious problem. Secondly, when a gambler can not think about any other thing except gambling.

The following are some signs that may indicate a gambling addiction:

  1. Preoccupation with gambling and constant thoughts about it
  2. Difficulty controlling the urge to gamble, leading to excessive gambling behavior
  3. Spending increasing amounts of money on gambling, even when finances are tight
  4. Lying about the extent or frequency of gambling
  5. Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling
  6. Neglecting work, family, or social obligations because of gambling
  7. Experiencing feelings of anxiety, depression, or hopelessness as a result of gambling
  8. Continuing to gamble despite the negative consequences, such as relationship problems or financial difficulties.
If you or someone you know is experiencing these symptoms, it's important to seek help.

I agree with you my friend and I have known several people who are doing it on a regular basis since they cannot anymore control their addiction to gambling. It is really sad that sometimes those who don't have much money are the one that are being lured to gambling.

Another sign of addiction is having the feeling that you can quit at anytime. But the truth of the matter is that you are already hooked.

If you have difficulty in controlling the urge to gamble then it means you are addicted to it. If you are suffering such a problem you should seek a professional therapist.
